Olympic Medalist Jenny Simpson On Her Sudden Cardiac Arrest After A Race & The Journey Back To Health
About this episode
Jenny Simpson is a three-time Olympian, Olympic medalist, and one of the most decorated American middle-distance runners of her generation.
In June, she collapsed at a community mile race. No pulse. More than twenty minutes of CPR. We sat down eight weeks later, before she'd spoken publicly.
We discuss June 16th, the inherited heart condition nobody knew she had, the five days she can't remember, and what they were actually like.
Jenny is extraordinary. Enjoy!
