The conversation of Type-1 Diabetes and Endurance. Redefining what is possible at the intersection of Type 1 Diabetes, human physiology, and extreme endurance. Welcome to The T1Determined Podcast, the definitive audio space exploring how elite athletes, adventurers, and medical pioneers conquer the world's most grueling physical challenges while managing Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). Hosted by T1D endurance athlete and advocate Joseph Anthony Marcello, this podcast dismantles the historic limitations placed on the diabetes community by merging raw, unfiltered human storytelling with clinical insight. Each episode features deep-dive conversations with ultra-endurance icons—from athletes who have run across continents and through the Sahara, to mountaineers summiting the world's highest peaks. Alongside these extraordinary individuals, we bring in leading endocrinologists, sports dietitians, and researchers to break down the complex science of managing a chronic autoimmune condition under extreme physical stress.

    Type 1 Trail Talks with Sheila Gorny

    Today, on Type 1 Trail Talks, Chris Roome sits down with Sheila Gorny, who faced a rare and unexpected T1D diagnosis in her 60s. Rather than letting fear hold her back, Sheila embraced the challenge as an invitation to learn, grow, and keep chasing adventure. On Project Insulnation's debut trip to the rugged White Mountains, Sheila sought to discover what her body could truly do. What she walked away with was not just personal resilience, but the deep camaraderie that comes from surrounding yourself with people who truly get it. – Thanks to your support, The T1Determined Podcast is growing fast.

    Today, we host our first-ever T1D Panel, where we sit down with the top experts in a specific sport or field and dive into an intense overarching discussion. I am thrilled to be joined by three ultramarathon athletes. Andrew Meisler has completed 45 Trail Ultras, including multiple 50Ks & 50-milers, 4 100Ks, and 3 100-milers. Don Muchow, joining us once more, is a legend who has self-imposed runs across states such as Texas as well as the entire country, from ocean to ocean. Chris Roome is a younger ultra-runner who has completed multiple 50Ks and a 50-miler. At the time of recording, I was personally training for my first 50K, and since then, I have successfully completed my 50K race and am actively training for an upcoming 50-miler. Between the four of us, we span decades and generations of ultra-athlete experiences. – Thanks to your support, The T1Determined Podcast is growing fast.
