The Dom Harvey Podcast - Lee Warn on Marathons, Advocacy & Purpose

 Lee Warn broke his back in 1989 when he was 16 years old. For 5 years after that he became, understandably, a depressed and angry young man. Then after a failed attempt at taking his own life at 21, he changed his outlook and perspective on life. Listen to this life story and many more on The Dom Harvey podcast!

The Dom Harvey Podcast, hosted by New Zealand's former radio host Dom Harvey, features engaging conversations with celebrities, athletes, and entrepreneurs. Explore episodes on his website or Apple Podcasts for the latest talks.

Lee Warn loves to take part in the marathons (think London or New York) …dressed in a squirrel suit, complete with the big squirrel head (because doing 42km in a wheelchair in activewear is not difficult enough!)  He has done the Sky Tower stair climb challenge 5 times.  That’s 52 flights of stairs.  He has also done a wheelchair bungy and rode his chair the 160km round Lake Taupo
These physical challenges are an example of the sort of person Lee Warn is, but he is so much more than wacky endurance events.
