Welcome to Endurance Gap Powered By Born to Adapt

In a world where endurance sport is celebrated daily, the stories of para athletes, their mastery, their strategy, and their relentless pursuit of possibility, have lived too long in the shadows. This world is extraordinary, but it's also misunderstood. The stories are powerful, but the systems behind them are complex. And for too long, the athletes driving the sport forward haven't had a place to share the full story. This podcast changes that. Welcome to Endurance Gap with Zachary Friedley and Dani Aravich. Zachary is a trail runner, adaptive athlete, and the founder of Born to Adapt, a movement built around community, visibility, and creating spaces where para athletes can show up fully. Dani is a Paralympian and multi-sport athlete who has competed in both summer and winter sports. They're not just your hosts. They're insiders who have lived the complexity, the beauty, the humor, the frustration, and the evolution of para endurance sport from every angle. Born to Adapt exists because the para endurance community deserves a platform that matches the depth of the athletes within it. Each episode gives you direct access to the athletes, decisions, challenges, and breakthroughs shaping para endurance today. If you want the full picture of this sport, told by the people living it, you're in the right place.
