How would your life be different if you started asking yourself: What’s possible? Johnny Agar was born with cerebral palsy, a muscle disorder that makes it difficult to walk and talk. From an early age, Johnny’s parents Becki and Jeff taught him that no obstacle was insurmountable and Johnny exemplifies this by willing himself to become the athlete he always dreamed of being. Team Agar participates in endurance races all over the world, with Jeff pushing, pulling and hauling Johnny as they swim, bike and run. At each race, Johnny walks the last mile on his own. They’ve completed more than 200 races from 5Ks to marathons to Ironmans. And in 2024, they will compete in the iconic Ironman World Championship in Kona, Hawaii. In our conversation today, we talk about overcoming limits, finding the gift in failure, and staying positive in the face of adversity.
