In this episode of Beyond the Track Podcast, we sit down with Funmi Oduwayie to hear one of the most powerful stories of resilience and transformation in sport.
Funmi reflects on her early success in basketball and the trajectory of a promising career – before a devastating knee injury suddenly brought everything to a halt. She opens up about the traumatic moments in hospital, the intense pain she experienced, and the uncertainty that followed, sharing honestly how her faith in God became a source of strength during the darkest period of her life.
That faith, resilience, and determination ultimately led Funmi to discover a new path in para athletics. She speaks about her journey into the sport, her rapid rise as a para athlete, and the performances that have defined her career so far.
This episode is a powerful reminder that setbacks don’t define us – and that sometimes the toughest moments can lead to an even greater purpose beyond the track.
