    His Spine Changed His Life, It Didn't End It.

    What do you do when your body gives you reasons to slow down, but you’re not ready to let life pass you by? In this episode of Runnah, I sit down with Justin Deflumeri, a runner, endurance athlete, former boxer, and someone who has built a habit of chasing the next big challenge. We talk about his journey into running, living with spinal issues, pushing through physical limitations, and why he refuses to let his body dictate how much life he gets to experience. Justin has gone from marathons, including Boston, to ultramarathons and triathlons, continually upping the ante. At the time of the challenge we discuss, his next goal was one of his biggest yet: attempting to run approximately 220 miles across New Hampshire, from the Canadian border in Pittsburg to the Massachusetts border in Nashua, in just five days. The run was planned to raise money for the Heather Abbott Foundation, which provides custom prosthetics to people who have experienced traumatic limb loss. We also get into the reality behind an adventure like this: sleep deprivation, nutrition, terrain, the importance of a support crew, knowing when your brain is no longer making great decisions, and the mental battle that comes when a challenge stops being fun and starts being really, really hard. And then there’s Justin’s daughter, Aria, who may have delivered the most important piece of race-day advice of all: “Dad, you’re going to be fine. You do this all the time.” This conversation is about running, but it’s really about not waiting for the perfect circumstances to start living your life.
