Wendy Larsen: Overcoming the Odds with a Boston Marathon and rollDisney Champion

Just imagine what it would feel like to cross the finish line of your first marathon. But let's raise the bar even higher; visualize doing this while combating a rare primary immunodeficiency disease, Ehlers-Donlowe syndrome, and recovering from a life-altering car accident! Our guest, the extraordinary Wendy Larsen, did exactly that and even seized a triumphant win at the Boston Marathon on her 50th birthday. Wendy, a champion hand-cyclist, will share with us the highs and lows of her journey, her struggle with weight, and her fight to be seen as an able-bodied athlete despite her physical challenges.

Wendy will also recount her adventures during the Race Across America and Race Across the West, and how she found a supportive community in the runDisney family. So, buckle up and join us for a voyage of inspiration, resilience, and triumph against all odds.

Now, picture yourself setting a goal and smashing it to bits. In the second segment, we'll be discussing just that - the thrill of setting achievable targets and the satisfaction of hitting them. The journey, as we will explore, is just as important as the destination. We'll share the camaraderie with fellow athletes, the appreciation of our victories, and the resilience we gain from each tumble and fall. We'll also delve into the health benefits of vegetarian diets and the role of fiber in our dietary regimen.
