In this Fireside Chat episode from Run Tri Mag, host Jason Bahamundi sits down with Jason O’Donnell, a father and endurance athlete who turned heartbreak into hope. When Jason’s infant son, Brody, was diagnosed with brain cancer, his world stopped but his story didn’t end there. Through the Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation (PCRF), Jason found strength, community, and purpose, transforming pain into advocacy that has raised millions for childhood cancer research.

This heartfelt conversation blends endurance, mindset, and the human spirit. From laughter over pizza toppings to powerful lessons in resilience, listeners will walk away reminded that endurance isn’t just about racing. This episode proves that endurance is about rising, rebuilding, and helping others cross their finish lines too.
