Ostomy patient to ultra endurance athlete | Living with IBD | CrohnsCast

In this episode of CrohnsCast we talk to Ian Walker @i4nwalker about his journey through IBD, and becoming an ultra endurance athlete. Discovering IBD was tough for Ian and like a lot of men he tried to hide from the disease for a long time from a fear of being vulnerable.

Ian talks through his mental battles and challenges coping with his diagnosis and how this turned in to fulfilling his life's goals

Getting diagnosed with IBD can be a relief in many cases and in some still be a huge shock. Living with IBD can require massive lifestyle adjustment. Though there are actually many things we have in common whilst living our lives with IBD, there are still so many lessons we can learn from each others journey's be that living with Crohn's, Colitis or with an ostomy. Our lives with IBD are stories of heroism and great magnitudes of self reflection and realisations. I these episodes we are talking about our stories living with IBD and our struggles strifes and blessings throughout this journey of living with IBD
