Summary
Today on the show, I am joined by Jarryd Wallace, a four-time Paralympian and multiple-time medalist. Jarryd’s accomplishments are nothing short of incredible—he’s a two-time bronze medalist at the Paralympics, earning his medals in Tokyo in 2020 in the 200 meters, T64 category, and again in Paris in 2024 in the long jump, T64 division. He’s also a bronze medalist in long jump from the 2023 World Championships, and in 2017, he earned a bronze in the 100 meters, T44 division. That same year, he took home gold in the 200 meters, T44, and also ran in the 4×100 relay at the 2013 World Championships, competing in the T42-46 category.
In this conversation, he shares the story of how he became a Paralympian, the moments that led to his leg amputation at a young age, and the journey he went on through 11 surgeries.
Jarryd is a father of two and is supported by Toyota and No Bull. I really enjoyed getting to know Jarryd and I hope that you enjoy this conversation as well!
