Ep. 097 w/ Jacky Hunt-Broersma • Doing Difficult Things

The RUN EAT SLEEP Show w/ Tommie Runz

Jacky Hunt-Broersma is an Amputee/Adaptive Runner, Ultra-Runner, Cancer Survivor, Mom and a dope human being! After being diagnosed with cancer in her lower leg and making the decision to go ahead with removing it…Jacky literally kept it moving. Post amputation, Jacky has challenged herself to great lengths and inspired so many people along the way. Refusing the let being an amputee keep her from living her best life…she forced the issue. She has the record for most consecutive days running a marathon each day…104 days in a row!!!! Jacky has completed countless ultramarathons and trail races. Most recently ran a multi day 200 mile race around a 1.2 mile loop!!!!!! BONKERS! What stood out to me is that she doesn’t just do what was “good for an amputee”, she is doing things that are beyond belief for anyone! So many amazing gems and quotes in this one!!
