    Never give up! That's the message that postal carrier, Cory Rose, delivers.  Cory discusses with Morgon how he found his way out of the grips of an eating disorder into the sport of triathlon. In his first sprint triathlon his 5k run was faster than his swim, but that didn't define his identity as a triathlete. His “never give up” spirit helped him overcome his struggle with his bodily image, get in front of his disorder and achieve success as a triathlete.
