Cameron Hollis is the type of strong we’d all love to be. He has a huge heart, a serious knack as a servant-leader, and I’ve been inspired by him since day one of knowing him. He completed the Marine Corps’ Reconnaissance Selection and Indoctrination, pre-BRC and BRC, and served in combat missions in Iraq. Let’s put that in perspective. Becoming a marine involved 25 ft tower jumps into water in full combat gear, deep water rifle retrievals, psychological testing, running obstacle courses while carrying full ruck sacks, and literally choosing to enter into hostile environments.Basically, it takes a tough, tough person to do what Cameron has done. He’ll tell you that another tough part of all of this was readjusting to civilian life. Now, he continues to be passionate about performance optimization and lives a really robust life- he runs ultra trail running races all while taking care of his family of five, being a leader in his church, and expanding McKenzie Scaffolding, the company he co-founded and leads, into new markets across the US. Cameron is Ultra, Human due to his remarkable mental fortitude. While many of us like to skirt challenges, Cameron jumps in whenever he gets the slightest sense of not wanting to do something- which he practiced even by being a guest here on the Ultra, Human podcast. He bravely opens up publicly about what fuels him, why he decided to join the military in the first place, and what his mental game is now in his ultra races- he shares stories of who he was and who he is becoming.Correction: Cameron played university and collegiate level rugby, football, and track &amp; field.
