S4E1 -- Ultraman Florida Athlete in Profile : Francesco Magisano
Manage episode 353651595 series 2867595
Francesco Magisano is my Ultraman Florida athlete in profile. At ten months old Francesco was diagnosed with eye cancer and by age 16 things went completely dark with blindness for him. He found his way to sport through Achilles International, a global adaptive sports and advocacy organization serving people with disabilities. That has led to him working for Achilles as the director of the New York metro region where he also leads a Saturday run group in Central Park.
He will be the first blind athlete to attempt Ultraman Florida, but the third blind athlete to compete at a 515 distance race. Raphael Jamie has previously completed UltraMX 515 and John Domandl was the first, in 2015 at Ultraman Australia.
Brian Hammond, Francesco's coach, also joins the conversation to speak about his role as his guide for the race. Brian is an alumni of UMFL from 2016 and an experienced crew member who has a long ultra resume to back up his advice.
