Jessica and Kevan welcome an amazing athlete, a wonderful person, and a great friend; Brandon Stapanowich. Brandon is a physical therapist and an Ultra Athlete. He has competed in many major events like many of the toughest ultra marathons, Nolan’s 14, a self supported run down the Colorado Trail, and most recently the infamous Barkley Marathon. WE recommend checking out the documentary about the Barkley Marathon on Netflix. Brandon helped to start a chapter of Achilles Internanional in the Colorado Springs area, which pairs able bodied individuals with individuals with various disabilities to encourage and motivate all to participate in various physical activities. You can find out more about Achilles Pikes Peak here. Brandon recounts his “15 minutes of fame,” in which he crawled across the finish line at the Boston Marathon. Check out “The Crawl” here.
