Timpanogos, for a 12,000-foot climb followed by another 50-mile bike ride home.<\/p>\n<p>Rice is an experienced mountain climber and an ultra-endurance trail runner. He typically places among the top 10 for races like the recent Sawtooth Ridge 50 miler in Washington, where he ran up 16,000 feet of elevation gain in over 90-degree heat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was insanely remote,\u201d notes Rice, who is based in the company\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/seattle-office\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Seattle office<\/a>. And he wouldn\u2019t have it any other way. \u201cI don\u2019t listen to music when I run,\u201d he says. \u201cI get out in the mountains\u2014I love being on a trail in the Cascades totally off the grid.

It is about building his physical and mental resilience so he\u2019s able to withstand any challenge.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a mindset he shares with <a href=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/about-us\/team\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">numerous team members at Hughes Marino<\/a>, who say that pushing their physical limits makes them a more focused and driven team. In fact, there are so many Hughes Marino super athletes, it has become an intrinsic part of the company&#8217;s DNA.<\/p>\n<p>They include among their ranks several world-class skiers; a former pro golfer and football player; several former collegiate baseball, football, basketball and tennis players and an all-American swimmer; ultra marathoners; triathletes and Ironman competitors; and a race car driver.<\/p>\n<h3>The Mental Toughness Mindset<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s definitely an association,\u201d says <a href=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/about-us\/stewardship\/shay-hughes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shay Hughes<\/a>, president and COO of Hughes Marino. \u201cOur team is high performing. They really thrive on extreme challenges and mental toughness.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhenever you\u2019re doing hard things, part of your brain wants to quit,\u201d says Rice. \u201cIt\u2019s easy to say \u2018I\u2019m done.\u2019 Once you\u2019ve completed it, the feeling of accomplishment transcends to the following weeks, months and years. Anytime you are faced with challenges, you can draw on these experiences, and say \u2018I did that 50 miler or 100 miler, I can certainly do this.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Enjoying the Journey<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s a mindset shared by competitive runner <a href=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/about-us\/team\/kevin-hogan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kevin Hogan<\/a>, vice president in the <a href=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/about-us\/west-los-angeles-office\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Los Angeles<\/a> office, who says his favorite Hughes Marino core value is \u201cenjoy the journey.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRaces are exhilarating and an incredible opportunity to test the limits of your physical and mental endurance, but my true love and obsession lies with the daily grind that gets you there,\u201d says Hogan. \u201cFrom the 4am alarm, to the pitch-black runs, to the empty gym in the morning, to all of the effort and focus around strength training, stretching, recovery, sleep and nutrition\u2014I love it all. Eventually, when I do cross a finish line, I think back to all the workouts and sacrifices I made along the way when nobody was watching, and how the journey was more rewarding than the destination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A lifelong athlete, Hogan realized the true potential of his running ability during the pandemic, quickly escalating from eight miles, to half marathons, to marathons. He\u2019s now raced two of the six major world marathons\u2014NYC and Boston\u2014and ran Boston at an impressively fast 2:43, placing 700th out of 30,000 runners. This race was even more memorable as Hogan competed alongside his brother, who placed 70th with a time of 2:27. Being able to share this experience is one he will never forget.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_30187\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30187\" style=\"width: 775px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-30187 size-full\" title=\"challenge accepted kevin hogan boston marathon\" src=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/dallas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/challenge-accepted-kevin-hogan-boston-marathon.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"775\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/dallas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/challenge-accepted-kevin-hogan-boston-marathon.jpg 775w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/dallas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/challenge-accepted-kevin-hogan-boston-marathon-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/dallas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/challenge-accepted-kevin-hogan-boston-marathon-768x476.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-30187\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Vice president, Kevin Hogan, seen finishing the 2022 Boston Marathon with an incredible time of 2:43.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<blockquote><p>There is an ever-present need for improvement, breaking through to the next level and accomplishment.

But with a new baby in the family, Hogan says he\u2019s not sure exactly how he\u2019ll juggle training and sleeping to get prepared. His ability to share these big life moments with his family and the larger Hughes Marino team has been an incredible experience.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are a lot of parallels between running and our professional careers,\u201d Hogan says, \u201cand I\u2019m very fortunate to work for a company that recognizes that and celebrates it, and to work alongside colleagues who share the same passion and values.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/about-us\/team\/john-jarvis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">John Jarvis<\/a>, executive vice president in the <a href=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/about-us\/headquarters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hughes Marino San Diego office<\/a>, recently lived out a lifelong surfing dream with his son\u2014catching a wave that lasted 2km\u2014or 1.2 miles\u2014 on a surfing trip in Puerto Malabrigo, Peru, on a famous surf break known as Chicama. Jarvis explains that Chicama is what\u2019s known as a surf point left, which means that he and his son who both ride \u201cgoofy foot,\u201d or standing with the left foot back, can face the wave as they ride.<\/p>\n<p>It was the \u201ctrip of a lifetime\u201d to experience the ultimate wave with his son, says Jarvis, who adds that surfing also connects him to the broader professional community and offers a way both to unwind and give back.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe only way to make the kind of hard work we do sustainable is to balance it with an equally intense unplugged experience, which is what surfing does for me,\u201d Jarvis says. \u201cAnd in Southern California, there are a surprising number of professionals who surf.\u201d He mentions the Luau and Legends of Surfing Invitational benefiting Moores Cancer Center at UC San Diego Health, which brings together life science executives who surf.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_30186\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30186\" style=\"width: 775px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-30186\" title=\"challenge accepted john jarvis surf\" src=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/dallas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/challenge-accepted-john-jarvis-surf.jpg\" alt=\"challenge accepted john jarvis surf\" width=\"775\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/dallas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/challenge-accepted-john-jarvis-surf.jpg 775w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/dallas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/challenge-accepted-john-jarvis-surf-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hughesmarino.com\/dallas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/challenge-accepted-john-jarvis-surf-768x476.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-30186\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Executive vice president, John Jarvis, goes big on an epic recent father-son surf trip in Peru.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>While there are a number of athletes looking to test their physical limits at Hughes Marino, there are many others who are just starting their fitness journeys, training for their first 10K race, heading out for their longest bike ride or joining colleagues for a challenging evening mountain hike to see the sunset.<\/p>\n<p>Across the company, colleagues are inspired by their teammates\u2019 stories, and feel supported by a company that celebrates one another for taking steps outside their comfort zone.
