Adrian Broca
VI triathlete
Adrian Broca is living a very compelling story. His quest is to become one of the world’s best blind endurance athletes.
After running dozens of marathons ,including a PR of 2:50:46 and 9 Boston Marathons, in the last fifteen years, Adrian was ready for a new challenge. Having learned how to swim over the Summer of 2016, Adrian has gone on tocomplete two full distance Ironman triathlons with a PR of 12:32:25.
He is now hooked on the sport and has his sights set on theultimate goal, competing at the Ironman World Championships in Kona.
Adrian’s blindness is the result of a genetic disorder that was first manifested about thirty years ago. His chronicling of his personal growth through endurance sports since the onset of the disability is truly inspirational. One can only marvel when he describes dusting himself off after crashing into unexpected obstacles along his memorized training route.
Adrian’s career goal is to become a corporate spokesperson. To hone his skills, he often speaks to schools and non-profit groups throughout southern California.
