Candice Dutko, owner of Achieve Wellness and Fitness in Mountaintop, Pennsylvania, shares her remarkable journey from 220 pounds to becoming both a competitive strongwoman and ultra-marathon runner with a mindset of "just keep moving."

• From unhealthy lifestyle to fitness professional after being invited to a Spartan Race with friends
• A broken leg caused by her dog became the turning point in her fitness consistency
• Trains simultaneously for seemingly opposite disciplines: strongman competitions and ultra marathons
• Working with a mindset coach to develop mental strategies for pushing through physical barriers
• Creating a gym environment where women of all ages discover their strength, many lifting for the first time
• Hosting women-focused strongman competitions with accessible events for beginners
• Preparing for a 24-hour ultra-marathon with a goal of 120 miles
• Using "systems checks" during endurance events to assess if she can continue
• Emphasizing that "you can have excuses or you can have results, but you can't have both"
• Showing clients what's possible by leading by example in multiple fitness disciplines
