Ever wondered how someone can transform from being overweight to running marathons? In this episode of 'Rehabilitationships', you'll hear the second part of Liz Fanco's incredible story. Liz, a mother of eight, had struggled with her weight for most of her adult life. Her turning point came when her kids invited her to join them in a half marathon to support World Vision's mission to solve the global water crisis.
However, years of running without progress left her frustrated until she met Todd Buckingham, Ph.D., an exercise physiologist at Mary Free Bed's Sports Performance Lab. Todd introduced Liz to the AlterG treadmill, a revolutionary device that reduces body weight during exercise. This was a game-changer for Liz, who discovered she'd been running incorrectly for years. With Todd's guidance, she began to see real progress and eventually set her sights on the New York City Marathon.
This episode picks up where the last one left off, diving deeper into the services Liz received at Mary Free Bed, her marathon journey, and what lies ahead for her. Liz's story is more than just about running; it's about resilience, dedication, and finding balance between family and personal goals. She emphasizes the importance of self-care, nutrition, and setting achievable targets.
Whether you're looking for inspiration to start your own fitness journey or interested in the science behind physical rehabilitation, this episode offers valuable insights and motivation. Tune in to hear how Liz turned her life around with the help of Todd Buckingham and discover how running became a path to recovery and empowerment for her.
