Not wanting to be defined as someone who lost a leg in Afghanistan set Andy Grant on a mission to redefine himself which resulted in him becoming the worlds fastest single leg amputee in the world over 10km by clocking a time of 37:17 in July 2016.
Since being medically discharged from the Royal Marines he has embarked on setting himself as many challenges as possible. From climbing some of the worlds highest mountains to learning to ski and surf as well as running. It has been with the sole aim of proving to himself and others that the adversities we go through in business and in life don’t have to define us, it is actually all about how we react.
Now back in the civillain world, he has found great pleasure in sharing my story with the corporate world, professional sports teams and in schools. Sharing the things that he has learnt along the way, showing people that you don’t have to have been blown up in Afghanistan for life to be hard, life is tough regardless of one leg or two. It is about managing the challenges and learning to thrive rather than merely survive.
Andy now delivers presentations, workshops and guest speeches tailored for the audiences in the hope to inspire and motivate and unlock the hidden potential within us all.
Andy also hosts the ‘Leg It’ Podcast and has written the book, ‘You’ll Never Walk‘.
