Unbreakable Will: Paralympian & Marine Rob Jones on Resilience After War

Unbreakable Will: Paralympian & Marine Rob Jones on Resilience After War

Rob Jones is a retired U.S. Marine Corps Sergeant, Paralympic medalist, endurance athlete, and motivational speaker from Lovettsville, Virginia. After joining the Marines in 2006, he deployed twice to Afghanistan, where in 2010 he was critically injured by an IED, resulting in the loss of both legs above the knee. Following an intensive recovery, Rob retired from the Marine Corps in 2011 and found new purpose through adaptive sports, earning a bronze medal in rowing at the 2012 Paralympic Games in London. He has since completed extraordinary endurance challenges, including cycling more than 5,100 miles across the United States and running 31 marathons in 31 consecutive days across 31 cities, raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for veteran-focused charities while inspiring others through his message of resilience, service, and perseverance.
