Brian was diagnosed with Type 1 at age 21. Despite the suddenness of his diagnosis and lack of education about managing Type 1, he was determined to not let diabetes hold him back.Brian has always prioritized health and fitness, which meant managing blood sugars was a bit of an adjustment. After a few years of figuring out diabetes, Brian wanted to prove he could do something he thought was impossible, run a 50-miler.In December of 2023, despite extreme temperatures and humidity, Brian attempted to run around the island of Aruba (52 miles). His experience was a roller coaster to say the least, but it’s an experience he’ll never forget.Brian Johnson's Resources:His Ultra Marathon Experience - YouTubeInstagramSimplifying Life With Diabetes - Coaching Resources:Website: www.simplifyingdiabetes.comNewsletter Sign Up"More Than A1C" - My Signature Coaching ProgramThe Diabetes Nutrition Master CourseThe 5-Pillars Of Diabetes Success WorksheetSupport & Donate To The PodcastThe T1D Exchange Registry is a research study, conducted over time, for individuals with type 1 diabetes and their supporters.
