My guest today had an accident earlier this year that could have ended his life in an instant.
Since that life-changing moment, he has decided to take life by the horns and live life on his terms.
I am looking forward to going a few easy miles with Jon Ornee and hearing about all of his adventures.

Today’s guest is someone that has lived through what, for many of us, may be our worst running nightmare: being hit by a car while out on a run.
Deb Westergaard, Out on the Trails
The fallout from the whole incident inspired her to change directions professionally with a goal of helping others.
Deb Westergaard and I will go a few easy miles as she shares how a negative situation became her source of motivation.
Angela Barraco didn’t think of herself as a runner after running her first marathon, but as much as she may want to deny it she clearly is a runner at this point in her life!
Angela Barraco Loves Running Long
Angela ran her first marathon by accident, or more accurately, signed up for her first marathon by accident.
After college, Angela was looking for ways to be more active on a regular basis, so she signed up for a half marathon. She figured that since she had paid the money already, she’d be motivated to do the training.
She did, and she loved it!
After that first half marathon, Angela heard about the NYC half and she decided to sign up.
Registration was closed, but charity spots were open, so she figured what the heck.
One thing led to another, and she got the confirmation: Congratulations! You’re Registered for the NYC Marathon!
