Summary

Push beyond your physical limits to improve yourself by following bowhunter and ultramarathoner Cameron Hanes's lifelong philosophies and disciplines。

“It’s all mental。”

I say this all the time, and it’s true。
If you believe you can do it, you can。
We all have virtually limitless potential。
Our bodies are capable of so much more than what we ask of them。
Take off the mental handcuffs, get out there, and start on your way today。
What is your passion? You can become better at it。
Committing yourself to fitness only fuels your beliefs。
You gotta believe to achieve。

Cameron Hanes discovered his true passion for bowhunting when he was twenty。 Inspired by the physical challenges of stalking elk in the Oregon wilderness—traversing mountainous terrain, braving erratic weather, and evading his quarry’s even more dangerous predators—he began an ever-evolving journey of self-improvement。 To become the best bowhunter of wild elk, to the caliber he believed he could be, Cam realized he would need more than archery skills。 He would need the stamina and strength that could only come from an athletic training regimen of long-distance running and heavy-weight lifting。 And every day for more than thirty years, Cam has put in the work, building miles and muscles, pushing through pain with a single-minded focus on the only goal worth having—besting himself time and again。

Part memoir, part motivational manifesto, Endure reveals how Cam—a self-professed average guy—put himself through the paces to live the life of an expert bowhunter, respected writer, and family man。 With discipline, sacrifice, resilience, a hard work ethic, and a belief in his own capabilities, Cam not only accomplished his dreams but continues to surpass them。 There is no secret to his success except relentless determination and loyal dedication to his own self-worth。

If Cam can do it, we all can。 Everyone has what it takes to endure adversity so we can rise above average, be the best we can be, and enjoy living life to the fullest。

While mentioned several times through the book, this book is not a self help book。 It's a book with ancedotal stories about how Haynes got to where he is today; a renowned distance runner and one of the very best bow hunters in the world。 His stories, personality, grit, and determination all shine through as raw and authentic emotion。 When it comes to athletes, Haynes is a different breed。 He's not perhaps the most talented, but he is one of the most dedicated to his craft。 Ultimately the root o While mentioned several times through the book, this book is not a self help book。 It's a book with ancedotal stories about how Haynes got to where he is today; a renowned distance runner and one of the very best bow hunters in the world。 His stories, personality, grit, and determination all shine through as raw and authentic emotion。 When it comes to athletes, Haynes is a different breed。 He's not perhaps the most talented, but he is one of the most dedicated to his craft。 Ultimately the root of this book comes down to finding your passion, because, like Haynes, if you find your passion, you will find happiness and success。 Most importantly, "Keep Hammering"! 。。。more

Providentially, I cranked my truck recently and heard some dude talking on a radio interview about running marathon distances most mornings before going to work。 He talked about bowhunting elk in rugged terrain and embracing suffering as a part living life。 And how he seeks it out for the challenge。 As a runner, it was exactly the message I needed to hear。 I found out it was bowhunter Cam Hanes talking about his new book。 I got it that day and began listening。 Not only is his story quite interes Providentially, I cranked my truck recently and heard some dude talking on a radio interview about running marathon distances most mornings before going to work。 He talked about bowhunting elk in rugged terrain and embracing suffering as a part living life。 And how he seeks it out for the challenge。 As a runner, it was exactly the message I needed to hear。 I found out it was bowhunter Cam Hanes talking about his new book。 I got it that day and began listening。 Not only is his story quite interesting, the book helped me in a ton of ways。 And now, I’m training for my first ultramarathon in the mountains of North Georgia。One other note, as a Christian hearing this book, there are also principles that can be applied spiritually to Cam’s message。 The easy life is not where it’s at。 Even though that’s the one we all want, almost on a daily basis。 We must war against our flesh and the Devil and keep hammering, always。 This book isn’t for everyone, and I think Cam would agree with that。 But for those who will hear it, it’s a good kick。 Keep hammering, friends。 。。。more

Every single minute of this book is exciting, motivational, and gives you the map to finding your best self。

Cam is undoubtedly an interesting dude with an undeniable grit and hustle。 Love listening to him on the JRE。 A bit of low rating just because I didn't get much out of this as a reader。 This book seemed more for Cam, than for an audience。 There's not much here to "get into" or thereby a story; feels more like a compendium of journal entries。 I'm sure some people will get some inspiration from it, but I'd recommend more Goggins or Jocko if you want a "hustle-hard" book with some story and insight。 Cam is undoubtedly an interesting dude with an undeniable grit and hustle。 Love listening to him on the JRE。 A bit of low rating just because I didn't get much out of this as a reader。 This book seemed more for Cam, than for an audience。 There's not much here to "get into" or thereby a story; feels more like a compendium of journal entries。 I'm sure some people will get some inspiration from it, but I'd recommend more Goggins or Jocko if you want a "hustle-hard" book with some story and insight。 。。。more

Motivating story!

I like Cam Hanes and what he has to say。 The way his mind works is fascinating and I appreciate his insight through his hunting stories。 The reason for 4/5 stars instead of 5 is I bought the audio book on libro。fm and I wish he’d hired a professional narrator to read the book rather than himself。 He just has a monotone voice and ends nearly every sentence with an upswing in tone。 I feel like he should have gone the David Goggins route and had a professional read it because it would have been mor I like Cam Hanes and what he has to say。 The way his mind works is fascinating and I appreciate his insight through his hunting stories。 The reason for 4/5 stars instead of 5 is I bought the audio book on libro。fm and I wish he’d hired a professional narrator to read the book rather than himself。 He just has a monotone voice and ends nearly every sentence with an upswing in tone。 I feel like he should have gone the David Goggins route and had a professional read it because it would have been more impactful and engaging that way。 。。。more

An inspiring book but one that could be condensed into a twitter thread

Drew Cross

Great inspirational read。 Starts a bit slow but finishes really strong。

Casan Scott

Inspiring story, but also a bit…。 whiny (not hating!)。 The first half was great。 He spends much of the second half of the book recalling people who slighted him for hunting and running a lot。 While it’s a well-earned victory lap, it’s also not particularly inspiring to listen to。 It’s just Cam dunking on people that he’s resented for a long time。 All that being said, I did enjoy the early parts of the book。 It was interesting to learn what motivates Cameron Hanes。

Much like the cyclical nature of Native American oral literature seen from the Iroquois, Navajo, and Algonquian peoples, Cameron Hanes also exhibits this trait in his story telling。 This is how the Native American peoples and Cam like to tell their history and tales to teach life long lessons。 Cam repeatedly hits home on topics such as: friendship, fatherhood, and giving a little more each day in pursuit of passion and dreams。 Obsessing over earning this gift of life we are given each and every Much like the cyclical nature of Native American oral literature seen from the Iroquois, Navajo, and Algonquian peoples, Cameron Hanes also exhibits this trait in his story telling。 This is how the Native American peoples and Cam like to tell their history and tales to teach life long lessons。 Cam repeatedly hits home on topics such as: friendship, fatherhood, and giving a little more each day in pursuit of passion and dreams。 Obsessing over earning this gift of life we are given each and every day through hard work, grit, and determination。 This cyclical type of story telling is far from a bad thing! In fact it keeps hammering the points he is trying to get across to the reader。 Truly a zero to hero story that can be devoured in mere days。 I highly recommend and encourage readers of all ages and walks of life to give this book a read。 The Foreword from Joe Rogan and the Afterword by David Goggins are an amazing garnishing on top of an incredible book。 。。。more

It can be repetitive, but if you know Cam Hanes, you know that’s how he lives his life。 My repeating, and following this insane routine every single day, all in the name of bow hunting。 He is an absolute animal。 Took me one day to finish this。 I promise anybody can take something out of this。
