In this episode of Transcending Sport @saragross talks to former professional triathlete @janellemorrison. Janelle shares her story about how a hideous car accident gave her a renewed perspective on sport, life and balance.
Six years ago, Janelle Morrison was a professional Ironman triathlete. In 2010, everything came to a halt in a near-fatal car accident.
