"What a great way to live that I can live on tangents but have sort of purpose and do all these tasks."

Beau Miles, the though-provoking Australian creator and self-proclaimed "poly-jobist," invites you on an extraordinary journey of intentional living in his enthralling YouTube video, "Running a marathon, one mile every hour." Inspired by the legendary Australian potato farmer Cliff Young who captured the world's attention by winning the Sydney to Melbourne ultra-marathon at 61 years old, Beau takes on a unique challenge, running one mile every hour for 24 hours, effectively completing a marathon. But this video is not just about physical endurance; it's a deep exploration of living life with purpose and intention.


As Beau navigates his marathon, he seamlessly integrates physical achievement with an array of activities - from crafting to cooking to odd jobs and repairs. His philosophy unfolds in the spaces between runs, where he discovers that life's true essence lies in finding meaning in the minutiae of daily tasks. This video, which has personally been one of my favourites, has profoundly altered my perspective on task-making and goal-setting, motivating me to infuse every moment with purpose.
