While she competed in Season Nine, injuries sidelined her during the show’s tenth anniversary season, but her husband, Charlie, ran in her honor. Sandy returned more robust than ever during Season 11. She became the first mom in show history to successfully get up the Warped Wall and hit the buzzer during the Tacoma/Seattle City Qualifiers.
Thanks to her appearances on American Ninja Warrior, Sandy Zimmerman caught the attention of various media platforms. She made an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show and was profiled on CNN Entertainment, E! News, The Huffington Post, and Women’s Health. Sandy also appeared on various podcasts, including Ninja Babes, Ordinary Champions with Austin Andrews, and The Socks & Soul Podcast with Kelly Ditto.
