Today, I sit down with Philip Price. Diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at age 43, Philip proves that a late-in-life diagnosis won't keep him from the outdoors. We discuss tackling steep mountain terrain, managing blood sugar through intense climbs, and finding the power of community on his trek with Project Insulnation.

Today, I talk in more depth about my time on Kilimanjaro as a Type 1 Diabetic. Specifically, I go into the mindset that led me to the mountain for my honeymoon and the lessons that I’ve learned since my climb. As an endurance athlete, I discuss a unique perspective on seeing T1D as an opportunity to better oneself, as well as the crucial need for support systems in our lives, such as my wife, Katerina, is for me. My mission today is to present you with these ideas while going through the story of my adventure to the Roof of Africa.

Today, on Type 1 Trail Talks, Chris Roome sits down with Sheila Gorny, who faced a rare and unexpected T1D diagnosis in her 60s. Rather than letting fear hold her back, Sheila embraced the challenge as an invitation to learn, grow, and keep chasing adventure. On Project Insulnation’s debut trip to the rugged White Mountains, Sheila sought to discover what her body could truly do. What she walked away with was not just personal resilience, but the deep camaraderie that comes from surrounding yourself with people who truly get it.

Today, we host our first-ever T1D Panel, where we sit down with the top experts in a specific sport or field and dive into an intense overarching discussion.

I am thrilled to be joined by three ultramarathon athletes. Andrew Meisler has completed 45 Trail Ultras, including multiple 50Ks & 50-milers, 4 100Ks, and 3 100-milers. Don Muchow, joining us once more, is a legend who has self-imposed runs across states such as Texas as well as the entire country, from ocean to ocean. Chris Roome is a younger ultra-runner who has completed multiple 50Ks and a 50-miler. At the time of recording, I was personally training for my first 50K, and since then, I have successfully completed my 50K race and am actively training for an upcoming 50-miler. Between the four of us, we span decades and generations of ultra-athlete experiences.

Today, I sit down with Wendell Butler. Diagnosed with T1D at age 25, Wendell chose to see his diagnosis not as a setback, but as a powerful wake-up call. Grounded in faith and a deep sense of personal accountability, Wendell approaches life with the belief that we are given tough challenges because we have the strength to handle them.

We talk about reframing chronic illness as a catalyst for personal growth, taking full control of your path, and the unique power of being both a student and a teacher within the diabetes community. This empowering perspective ultimately led him to the trails to join us on our inaugural trip of Project InsulNation.

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.
