From Injury to Athlete: Will Ruane


Listen Later

Today’s guest is Will Ruane, whose social media highlights paint a vibrant picture of an active and successful life post-spinal injury. I’ve been wanting to sit down with Will for a while now, and this conversation did not disappoint.

Will shares his journey from the day of his injury, to how he tackled the physical and mental challenges that followed. He tells the inspiring story of how he lost an incredible 38 kg and transformed his body into a lean, athletic machine.


He’s one of those annoyingly talented people who seem to master every adaptive sport they try, and on top of that, he’s an absolute pleasure to talk to—a brilliant storyteller, down-to-earth, and eloquent. We also dive into his experiences finding love after spinal cord injury, and Will offers thoughtful advice for anyone in a similar situation.
