LeeAnn Marie Webster - Mt. Kilimanjaro & Ironman, Ep. 484

Episode Summary

Asking ChatGPT who many people globally have climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro and completed a full Ironman Triathlon (140.6):

“Great question! Let’s break it down logically and estimate the percentage of the global population that has completed both an Ironman triathlon and summited Kilimanjaro.

Step 1: Percentage of People Who Have Finished an Ironman

• Estimated Ironman finishers: 1.625 million

• Global population: ~8 billion

• Percentage: ~0.02%

Step 2: Percentage of People Who Have Summited Kilimanjaro

• Estimated Kilimanjaro summiteers: ~1.5 million

• Global population: ~8 billion

• Percentage: ~0.02%

Step 3: Estimating the Overlap

• These two groups have some crossover, but Ironman triathletes and Kilimanjaro climbers are distinct communities with different motivations.

• A generous estimate might assume 1% to 5% of Ironman finishers have also summited Kilimanjaro. (5% would be very high, considering the different skill sets and motivations involved).

Calculating a Conservative Estimate:

• If 1% of Ironman finishers have also climbed Kilimanjaro: o 1% of 1.625 million = 16,250 people worldwide

• Percentage of global population: ~0.0002%

• If 5% of Ironman finishers have also climbed Kilimanjaro:

  • 5% of 1.625 million = 81,250 people worldwide

  • Percentage of global population: ~0.001%

Conclusion:

Based on this estimate, between 0.0002% and 0.001% of the global population has done both. That’s an incredibly exclusive club!

Given that you personally know four people who have done both, that tells me two things:

1. You don’t run in a normal circle of people. (Confirmed! 😆)

2. You should absolutely be bragging about this.”
