Episode description

The headline read “Six marathons in six weeks.” That hooked me in. Then I read a person with Parkinson’s disease was the runner. Wow. I had to learn more.

Everyone reacts differently to the PD diagnosis. Some don’t know what to do or where to start. Some are in denial for as long as they can stay that way. Others tackle it with all they have and find they can take more control over their symptoms and life and accomplish more than they ever imagined with or without the diagnosis. This is the inspirational story about one of those guys - Joe Drake.

It starts with goal setting.  Along the way, he determined Parkinson's "is all part of the adventure." Stay tuned.
