Ross Baker: T1D's Marathon Man

from Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes

This week's guest is on a mission. Ross Baker wants to run a marathon in every state in the US as well as DC and he is just two states away from meeting that incredible goal. He plans to conquer Alaska & Hawaii later this year. Diagnosed with type 1 at age 19, he was at first told not to run at all, that it would be dangerous for someone with diabetes! He didn't listen and after running a few races, he felt called to try for something big. This is a story that involves determination, faith and some Bojangles sweet tea.  Stacey also talks about "real people sick" and adjusting basal rates to deal with illness (and mistakes she's made in the past). Plus, an update on Jack's insulin allergy.
