About this episode

Sarah Bishop shares her experience with sarcoidosis while training for an endurance event in New Zealand.

Sarah Bishop has a little extra compared to the rest of us. Even though she endures daily struggles with Sarcoidosis she pushes herself to the limit. In this case the limit is an endurance event called The Goat, which takes place in her native New Zealand. Sarah turned her expedition into a fundraiser for the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research, and it gained national notoriety and momentum. In this episode of the FSR Sarc Fighter podcast, Sarah describes the grueling training and how sarcoidosis makes everything just that much more difficult.
