Ten years ago this week in April, 2012, Rannveig Aamodt made a nearly fatal mistake while cleaning the anchors of a sport route in Turkey. She fell 50 feet to the ground, shattering her back, pelvis, arm, and both ankles. We won’t be going into what caused the accident, but you can read that story, including some heart wrenching excerpts, at her blog about the accident.
Instead, this episode is about her recovery. The physical and mental approach she took. The resilience and the will. It’s about how she went from clinging to life, to climbing harder than ever, and what it took to get back on the sharp end, and past the spectre of that moment.
This conversation originally aired on February 19, 2016.
