\nAs someone committed to becoming the best version of myself – and encouraging others to be their best – I signed up for 29029 Everest. This ultra endurance challenge takes the 29,029 feet it takes to reach the summit of Mount Everest and turns it into a three-day, 36-hour hiking community challenge that is equal parts physical, mental and spiritual.<\/p>\n
My participation will not only push me past my comfort zone to see what I can accomplish, it will raise funds for an important charity: The Jones Project, a not-for-profit organization aimed at raising awareness of mental and emotional illness and funding the resources and research that can help people live more rewarding lives. The Jones Project was created in memory of Josh Jones, a visionary communicator and all-around good human.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDonate\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\tTell us about yourself:\n\t\t\t\t I have been married to Hannah for 12 years, and we have four children: Easton, 7; Copeland, 5; August, 2; and Weslie, 10 months (as of the event date).<\/p>\n We love to travel, even with the young kids, and we spend a ton of time at the lake as a family. During the summer, we are boating, swimming and chasing kids around different activities.<\/p>\n We normally travel to one surfing destination a year, because this is my passion and has been for a long time. Living in Kansas has made it slightly difficult to drive to the beach, so we make a point to vacation where there are waves. It helps to surf behind the boat too!<\/p>\n I lead an amazing team at Advisors Excel that we call The Main Team. It is 10 individuals who I think are the most elite marketers in the industry, who coach and support the most successful advisors in the country.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tWhy did you choose to participate in 29029?\n\t\t\t\t I am usually looking for a challenge, and I saw the list of friends and colleagues who I would be next to through it all, and I was in!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tWhat’s your greatest fear about participating in 29029?\n\t\t\t\t My greatest fear is getting injured either before or during the trek that would keep me from giving it my best shot. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\tWhat do you hope to learn from this experience?\n\t\t\t\t I’m a blank page. I’m open to seeing what I learn about myself through the challenge.<\/p>\n Donate An Endurance ChallengeLike No Other As someone committed to becoming the best version of myself – and encouraging others to be their best – I signed up for 29029 […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":40136,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"Cory Swain - Conquering the Climb","_seopress_titles_desc":"An Endurance Challenge Like No Other ","_seopress_robots_index":"","site-sidebar-layout":"no-sidebar","site-content-layout":"page-builder","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"disabled","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"disabled","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"enabled","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-40242","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thejonesproject.org\/29029\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/40242","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thejonesproject.org\/29029\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thejonesproject.org\/29029\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thejonesproject.org\/29029\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thejonesproject.org\/29029\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40242"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/thejonesproject.org\/29029\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/40242\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thejonesproject.org\/29029\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40136"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thejonesproject.org\/29029\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40242"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"mountain\"](\"https:\/\/aejonesproject.wpenginepowered.com\/29029\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/mountain.png\" "\\"mountain\\"")
