Jamie's journey began at the age of nine when chronic pain confined him to a wheelchair by twelve. Unable to use his right foot due to constant pain, he fought tirelessly for six years to convince doctors to perform a life-changing amputation at sixteen. This decision empowered him to reclaim his mobility, walking for the first time in 14 years and soon after, embracing running.
Since his surgery, Jamie has become an unstoppable force in the OCR world, conquering over 100 Tough Mudder events, including the grueling 24-hour World's Toughest Mudder. His unwavering spirit and dedication to defying limitations continue to inspire countless individuals.
