Meet Lani Woods. Lani is a single mother of 2 and avid obstacle course racer (OCR) and cycling newbie from Compton CA. She originally started trail running as a way to cope with bipolar depression and PTSD. This ultimately led her to OCR and her love of overcoming obstacles. Lani even overcame a traumatic knee injury to come back as an American Ninja Warrior contestant on Season 13. In addition to being an athlete, she is the CEO and host of Black With Endurance, a podcast highlighting black athletes in non traditional sports. Motto: Adapt. Overcome. Evolve. Repeat!
