Lachlan Stuart is a Brisbane-based endurance athlete, keynote speaker, husband, father, and son. He grew up in Toowoomba, Queensland, and chased a professional rugby career to France before injury ended that chapter. After hitting rock bottom, he rebuilt himself from the ground up — studying performance psychology, completing his NLP Master Practitioner certification, and starting to coach others through the same struggle. In 2017 he launched the Man That Can podcast. In 2018 he founded The Man That Can Project, which has since reached men in over 70 countries. In 2025, Lachlan became the first person in history to complete the 50 States Marathon Challenge in winter, and the first ever to run 58 marathons in 58 days across the United States and Australia — raising over $161,000 for the Mental Awareness Foundation. His memoir, States of Mind: Life Is an Adventure of Becoming, is published by Dean Publishing in 2026. The accompanying documentary, also titled States of Mind, releases in 2026.
From the book

“Every transformation begins the same way. Not with confidence or clarity or a sunrise, but with a moment you aren’t ready for, and a decision you make anyway.”
“Pain wasn’t punishment anymore. It was proof.”
“Conviction isn’t confidence. Confidence is what you show people. Conviction is what you do when no one’s watching.”
“Achievement doesn’t complete you. It reveals you.”
“You are not defined by what you do. You’re defined by who you become in the process.”
