Beating Cancer, Trail Running, & Zest for Life with Christina Vincent Jul 28, 2020

Show notes

Trail runner, ultramarathoner & explorer, Christina Vincent can be found logging well over 100 miles a week where the pavement ends and the dirt path begins.

At the age of 32, she was diagnosed with Psuedomyxoma Peritonei (PMP), a rare abdominopelvic cancer whose highly aggressive treatment included multiple organ removal and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
