Today, Chris and I sit down with Charlie Hurst—British ultrarunner, chiropractor, and endurance coach living with Type 1 Diabetes. After picking up running during lockdown, Charlie quickly went from road marathons to conquering some of the world’s toughest ultra-endurance races, including becoming the first British woman with T1D to complete the 155-mile Marathon des Sables in the Sahara Desert. We talk protocols, actionable items on managing blood sugars, and pushing human limits, as well as how she’s empowering other T1D athletes to perform at their highest level.

Today, Chris Roome sits down with Joe Karr. Diagnosed with T1D at age 12, Joe has spent 30 years carrying the relentless, 24/7 mental load that comes with managing a chronic condition. From navigating fatherhood to establishing honest communication with his family through simple phrases like "It's not me, it's D," Joe knows that protecting your mental health is just as essential as watching your numbers. This drive for shared understanding ultimately led him to the trails to join us on our inaugural trip of Project InsulNation.
