In this episode of Chief Endurance Officer, Greg McDonough talks with Tristan Wilson, a fourth generation family construction leader turned AI founder. Tristan spent eight years rising through his family's highway construction business in Louisiana, eventually managing the largest production facility of its kind in the state and leading the company's biggest industrial construction project ever, a two year onsite relocation. He later founded Edgevanta, a company built to fix one of construction's oldest problems: pricing and estimating. Tristan also shares his journey into ultrarunning, including two 200 mile races, a dislocated elbow at mile 37, and the DNFs that taught him as much as his finishes did.Takeaways:Tristan's endurance mindset comes down to two lessons from long races: people are capable of far more than they know, and pain and agony are temporary while nothing else truly is, except the soul.Accountability partners, especially other founders at a similar stage, have been one of the biggest drivers of Tristan's growth in business, mirroring the crews and pacers that got him through his toughest ultra races.Tristan credits much of his networking success to giving value first, connecting people and helping others, rather than networking with an agenda.A painful early lesson as a young estimator, when his company left about seven hundred thousand dollars on the table on a paving bid, became the seed that eventually grew into Edgevanta, a pricing intelligence and estimating automation platform for heavy highway and civil construction companies.Tristan openly discusses his DNFs (Did Not Finish races) alongside his finishes, including pulling out of a race in Massachusetts and a 100K where a plantar issue ended his day, and says normalizing those setbacks is part of the journey.At one 200 mile race, Tristan dislocated his elbow at mile 37 while raising money for suicide prevention in construction, got it treated at a hospital, then returned to the course with his sister and another pacer to finish before the cutoff.Tristan's guiding business philosophy borrows a phrase he once heard: "Complexity is the enemy of execution," which pushes him to focus only on what matters most each day.Quote of the Show:"Pain and agony is temporary. Nothing's permanent. Only your soul is permanent." - Tristan WilsonLinks:Tristan’s Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tristan-a-wilson/Edgevanta’’s Website: https://edgevana.com/Ways to Tune In:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/580aLDKac1ld031W4nWDtp Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chief-endurance-officer/id1680214218?uo=4Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy50cmFuc2lzdG9yLmZtL2NoaWVmLWVuZHVyYW5jZS1vZmZpY2Vy Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/3c96880f-8dcd-4a6e-b1c8-fda816f872a9 Podcast Addict: https://podcastaddict.com/podcast/4340732 Deezer: https://www.deezer.com/show/5897357 Player FM: https://player.fm/series/series-3462719 Podchaser: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/chief-endurance-officer-5250102 Listen Notes: https://www.listennotes.com/podcasts/chief-endurance-officer-ringmaster-KMdv2I8XwkN/ Keep up to date on our social accounts:Check out our Website: http://enduranceofficer.com/ Community Discount Link: https://ceopodcast.myezrewards.com/signup/chief-endurance-officer-podcast Join my Endurance Leadership Community: https://endurance-leadership-community.mn.co/share/_C3ZDRz7OX2vbCme?utm_source=manual Chief Endurance Officer is produced by Ringmaster, on a mission to create connections through B2B podcasts.
