I think I know why Donald Trump wants Greenland. But why does everyone else see it as strategically important? It's not what you think. But it will change the world. Listen to this week's episode to find out more.

If robots can be developed to run ultra trail marathons and compete in sporting events, then why should humans even bother anymore?

Maybe it's less about being better than someone else, and more about finding out where one's own limits are. Maybe that's the essence of being human.

In this episode of ThrowForward Thursday we ask how advanced humanoid robots are rewiring not just our view of automation and technology, but also our view of ourselves.

Also, as a bonus... keep an eye on my progress towards running one of the world's toughest trail marathons, the Otter Challenge in October 2026.

Faster, higher, stronger - the Olympic motto that inspires the best athletes to push themselves to the limit. But what if we changed where those limits are? What if we allowed humans to not just rely on good genetics and intensive training, but also on chemical, medical and biomechanical enhancements? The team at The Enhanced Games are aiming to answer this question in a few weeks time in Las Vegas - see http://www.enhanced.com for details. Is this the future of sport? Or are we crossing a line we should not cross?

Maybe a more important question is what sorts of human enhancements might be valuable and useful in your life and work? And are there any legal and ethical limits you should be considering?
