  • #204: 50 Miles In Aruba As a T1D - Brian Johnson

    Brian was diagnosed with Type 1 at age 21. Despite the suddenness of his diagnosis and lack of education about managing Type 1, he was determined to not let diabetes hold him back.

    Brian has always prioritized health and fitness, which meant managing blood sugars was a bit of an adjustment. After a few years of figuring out diabetes, Brian wanted to prove he could do something he thought was impossible, run a 50-miler.

    In December of 2023, despite extreme temperatures and humidity, Brian attempted to run around the island of Aruba (52 miles). His experience was a roller coaster to say the least, but it’s an experience he’ll never forget.

    Have you ever wondered what it was really like living with Diabetes before technology? I know I have! In todays episode, I sat down with Wemara Lichty who has been Diabetic for let's just say a long time. We talked about the depths she had to go to keep herself alive and the challenges she overcome growing up without technology. As I was listening to her story I couldn't help to feel a sense of relief and gratitude for where technology and the Diabetes community has come.
