Wasn't sure where to put this, but this forum seemed as good a place as any.
I've just finished watching the Ben Fogle, James Cracknell & Ed Coates walk to the pole and it really struck me just how psychologically unbalanced James Cracknell is. Everyone seemed in awe of him having double olympic gold, but he seemed very unbalanced to me. I can imagine the father figure he has - high achieving and totally unrelenting .
It made me wonder whether most of the high achieving people I look up to are less impressive on close inspection (with the exception of Ben Fogle who is really driven but empathetic and articulate).
