Summary

Mark Relei's remarkable journey is one of unwavering resilience and an indomitable spirit. In July 2013, a traumatic accident resulted in the breaking of his tibial and fibular bones, leading to compartment syndrome and the threat of amputation. Mark underwent nine surgeries to save his leg and toes. His story takes a remarkable turn as he defied the odds, refusing to be defined by limitations.

Prescribed pain medications following his injury, Mark faced a struggle with addiction, enduring a spiral that eventually led to his voluntary admission to a psychiatric hospital. It was here that he witnessed the devastating impact of addiction and resolved to overcome his own challenges.

Despite the daunting obstacles he faced, Mark's determination remained unshaken. He completed college and managed to stay off heavy pain medication for years. In an extraordinary show of strength, he trained for a marathon and an Ironman race, proving that with unwavering belief and faith, almost anything is possible.

His remarkable journey and refusal to quit have inspired Mark to establish "No Quit 24/7," a brand dedicated to promoting resilience and motivation. Mark's story serves as a testament to the power of determination, and he invites others to adopt the same "no quit" attitude in the face of adversity.

Join us for this week on RBO for an inspiring conversation as Mark shares his extraordinary journey and his mission to inspire and motivate others.
