Podcast/On line groups that help inspire

I met Shan when I was on Instagram and I saw she was using my butterfly as her profile logo.  Curious as to why I reached out to her and started to learn more about her and her story.   Below is a little about her, you can google her name or follow her on Facebook.  She is an incredible woman who doesn't quit.  She is a true inspiration

My name is Shaninlea Visser, Shan for short, and I live on the South Coast of Durban South Africa.  I would love to share my story with you, it's my fight for survival since 2017 and my will to live. You can read up on me on my Facebook page "Shan Living Her Life" or my  IG page @shan.livinglife, or if you google my name my story will come up, through all of this I remain positive, determined and motivated to get my life back on track.  I became a quadruple amputee due to septicemia in January 2017. 

Denny reached out to me on Twitter after following me and reading about my story.   I had a great time speaking with him, Denny has a wide variety of guest who speak about their running journeys and how they started.

I  have to admit I have not listened to the podcast, however I am a member of the facebook group and the individuals in this group are AMAZING!!  If you have alway wanted to run but you don't know where to start, I would check out this group!!

Jason reached out to me and wanted to know more about my story.  We had a great chat!  We may disagree on if pineapple belongs on pizza but other than that we had a great conversation.  

Run • Tri • Bike serves the beginner endurance athlete by providing insight into the sports of running, cycling, swimming, and triathlon. We provide opportunities for athletes to learn about these sports by providing editorial that covers the nuances but we also look to inspire and motivate.

To make the world of endurance sports less intimidating we will bring you stories about athletes from all walks of life. They will be female. They will be BIPOC. They will be physically challenged. They will be LGBTQ+. They will all be athletes. These inspiring stories about how each one got started will show you that there is a spot at the starting line for everybody.

Our goal is to make endurance sports less intimidating. To do that we want to show you how much fun they can be. Our Club Spotlight will bring you clubs and teams from across the country that welcome you with open arms. Your Best Running Buddy, features those four legged friends that make running more enjoyable.

Please enjoy the tips and stories on our website, in our magazine, and on our social media platforms. We are here to help you enjoy the sports we love, but we also have one request. Invite a friend to join you on your next swim, bike or run. Our sports are better when enjoyed with others.
