#006 Nobody said it would be easy (2/3) — Richard Wright

--:--

Richard Wright — Speaker, Author, Endurance Athlete

Strong. Feeling good. Strong. Powerful. A mantra that beat cancer.

Episode two of our three-part series takes us further into Richard's first cancer diagnosis, using the metaphor of an Ironman triathlon. We hit our first transition, and embark on a grueling 180 km cycle together.

Richard bares all as we discover what it feels like to be given 6 months to live, and what it takes to beat an invisible, apparently unbeatable enemy.
