When Darin Santangelo, executive director of procedural services at AdventHealth Orlando, started training for an Ironman, he said he couldn’t run to his mailbox. Now, he competes in what’s widely known as one of the most difficult one-day athletic events in the world.
While his motivation was sparked by an organizational culture committed to health and wellness, his drive comes from his family. “I have a disabled daughter, so it keeps me in shape to care for her,” Santangelo said.
In this episode of the Inspiring Wholeness podcast, Santangelo joins Russell Gaither, AdventHealth sports performance program manager, to discuss finding your inner Ironman.
Listen to this episode to hear about Santangelo’s pursuit of an extraordinary goal, how to start an exercise routine even if you’re a beginner, staying motivated, training, building endurance safely and Ironman lessons he applies to the workplace.
