Description
This week Mark is at Lake Tahoe for the Spartan Race championships. He talks to Misty Diaz, who is well-known as an athlete and advocate for people with Spina Bifida. She has completed over 200 races herself, and she is both an advocate and an impressive athlete. IN spite of significant obstacles, she was eventually able to pursue her athletic ambitions. Misty endured much hardship on her way to becoming one of the top adaptive athletes, including 28 different surgeries. She had to start taking morphine to deal with pain. She became addicted, and that was also a challenge that she had to overcome. Though Misty has a fear of water, she is open to the idea of doing SEALFIT with some adaptations for her needs. Listen to this episode to hear how Misty was able to overcome the very significant challenges she faced to pursue her calling in athletics.
