## Resource

A raw recovery story becomes a blueprint for identity, resilience, and long-distance running. In this condensed recap of The Rich Roll Podcast, Rich Roll sits down with Detroit-area runner Tommie Runz to trace his path from morning drinking and shame to sobriety, marathons, trail racing, and a public mission built on honesty. This summary distills the key takeaways from the full episode into minutes, covering addiction, mental health, Black representation in running, run clubs, Western States, the Speed Project, and why recovery had to come before performance. You’ll hear how Tommie turned sobriety into purpose, why he says running is a byproduct of healing, and what endurance sports can teach about humility, community, and moving forward. Listen now to get the key ideas in minutes.
