Summary
Welcome to RunPod, where running meets inspiration! Today's lovely episode features the incredible Milly Pickles, a social media content creator, presenter, motivational speaker, and fitness & disability advocate.
And no, she doesn’t eat pickles “she just is one!” (according to her website).
Milly's story is one of sheer resilience and positivity. After losing her right leg below the knee following a life-changing accident in 2017, Milly has turned her journey into a powerful testament to overcoming adversity.
In this episode Milly shares her rise as a fitness advocate, presenting at the Paralympics, the importance of pushing yourself, running with a prosthetic blade, and how no challenge is too big when you have the right outlook on life.
Milly’s mission is clear: to show that life is worth living, even when life throws things at you which are out of your control.
Whether you're a runner, someone facing challenges, or simply looking for an uplifting conversation, this episode will leave you motivated and ready to take on the world—one run at a time.
