This week we welcome Elite Obstacle Course Racer and Endurance Athlete, Miguel Medina. Miguel is known for having numerous podium finishes in many OCR events including Spartan Race, World's Toughest Mudder, OCR World Championships and much more. But, Miguel hasn't always been racing towards the finish line. He shares his motivational story of how he put down the video game controller & took control of his life. Miguel talks about being diagnosed with severe Congenital Spinal Stenosis when he was 19 that progressed to the point where he could barely walk. Opting for surgery to relieve the pain, he ended up with a staph infection in his spine, and while in recovery, the only time he felt relief was when he was moving. He shares how he decided to keep moving and begin a new journey in life through endurance racing. Miguel also talks about becoming a medical interpreter and how rewarding it is for him to help families with linguistic barriers. Miguel is a passionate young athlete and a true inspiration for others to live life to the fullest.
