Success in running often comes from hitting rock bottom. This was the case for Terence Gerchberg, who transformed his gambling addiction into a mission to help others find their footing, one mile at a time.

In the words of Terence, “Running changed and saved my life. Today, I have the privilege of helping others do the same through Back on My Feet, a national nonprofit that transforms the lives of those experiencing homelessness and addiction through the power of running and community.”

Jon chats with Terence about:

• overcoming gambling addiction through running

• Back on My Feet nonprofit mission

• ultra running and Leadville race attempts

• community support in running groups

• finding purpose through helping others

• his definition of success (not money)
