On The Runs 71 - Coby Jacobus - Kidney Transplant Runner

On episode 71 we are joined by Cody Jocobus (04:23) who is a local friend of the pod that has a pretty amazing story. Coby was on track to do some amazing things in the sport of running, but for years something was holding him back. Turned out his Kidney was failing him. Coby shares his story with us not only because it's remarkable, but there could be someone out there who needs to hear this story.  When Coby needed to hear it as his Kidney was failing him, he couldn't find it. He also shares with us some of the amazing things he's done in his life both before and after the Kidney Transplant. Nothing has stopped Coby from doing the things he loves the most.
