Some people run to escape. Owen runs to prove something far more powerful.
At 16, Owen's life was turned upside down by a diagnosis that would challenge everything — his health, his identity, and his future. What followed was four years of battles most of us will never face, and a moment at age 20 that changed him forever.
But this isn't a story about what he lost. It's about what he built from it.
Just months after a life-altering surgery, Owen was back in training. Today he's lining up at ultramarathons, backyard ultras, and triathlons — and inspiring a community of people who've been told they can't.
In this episode, Owen gets brutally honest about the highs, the lows, the moments he nearly didn't make it, and the people who pulled him through. He also shares something he's never stopped fighting for — recognition and belonging in a sport that hasn't quite caught up yet.
This one will stay with you.
