66. Restoring Hope with Derryk Vanderjagt

On this episode of Beyond The Limit I am talking with Derryk Vanderjagt. Derryk is the first person to complete the NYC Marathon with his hands bound in support of human trafficking and those being mistreated. With the support of Restore NYC, Derryk is on mission to raise awareness and restore hope for those who are suffering.


In this episodee we find out why he decided to run the NYC Marathon with his hands bound together. Derryk talks about the impact of his dad passing. How he coped with stress. The health consequences of gaining a significant amount of weight in a short period of time. We find out the event that changed the trajectory of the path he was on. We learn how he took ownership of the stress and trauma he experienced, by losing 65 pounds. He shares how community inspires idea execution. How faith becomes a foundation to lean on during dark times. And how to turn your pain into purpose.

I hope you enjoy this conversation with Derryk.
