Meet Ken Rideout
At 36 years old, Ken was a successful Wall Street businessman with one small problem. He was addicted to opioids for over a decade. After countless attempts to get back on track, he overcame the addiction by running 10 miles every single day, which led to him becoming a four time age group marathon world champion. One of his biggest accomplishments is winning the Gobi March race, a run spanning 155 miles through the desert of Mongolia.
