Back on My Feet: Transforming Lives One Mile at a Time

Hi there! Feel free to drop us a text if you enjoy the episode.

In this special episode of the New England Endurance Podcast, we celebrate the 15-year anniversary of Back on My Feet (Boston), an organization that has been changing lives through the power of fitness and community.  We sit down with with Jen Hyde, the New England director for Back on My Feet, and learn how endurance sports can transform lives, particularly for individuals experiencing homelessness and addiction. Jen shares insights into the program's structure, success stories, and the importance of community support in fostering resilience and economic independence. The discussion highlights the impact of walking and running on personal confidence and the role of the Boston running community in supporting Back on My Feet's mission.

We hear firsthand how a simple step—walking or running—can be the catalyst for transformation, instilling discipline, confidence, and a sense of belonging. Through structured programming, job training, and housing assistance, Back on My Feet has helped thousands rewrite their stories. This conversation is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of endurance—both on the pavement and in life.  

Join us as we dive into the impact of this incredible organization, share personal success stories, and highlight how movement can be the first stride toward a brighter future.

Art & Eric embark on a journey to showcase and celebrate the endurance sports community in New England.
