Description

We’re back with another unedited, live episode of Runnah from the Falmouth Road Race Expo — and this one was totally impromptu! I had the chance to sit down with Olympian, world champion, and all-around powerhouse Craig Blanchette.

Craig’s journey goes way beyond racing. From competing in the 1500m wheelchair event at the 1988 Seoul Olympics to winning multiple world championships, he’s built a career defined by speed, grit, and resilience. But his story isn’t just about medals — it’s about overcoming some of life’s hardest battles, finding faith, and using those lessons to inspire others as a speaker, mentor, and advocate for the next generation of athletes.

This is one of those raw, unplanned conversations that sticks with you — equal parts racing, real life, and the heart of what it means to keep moving forward.
