077: Kallup McCoy II: From Addiction to Running Across America


Listen Later

In this episode, Kallup McCoy II opens up about his journey from early addiction to becoming a relentless force for recovery and purpose. As an enrolled citizen of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, Kallup shares how prescribed narcotics led him down a dark path - and how hitting rock bottom in jail became the moment God grabbed hold of his life.

He talks about co-founding ResHope Recovery and Consulting, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting individuals in recovery, and how community, accountability, and faith carry people further than willpower alone. Kallup also breaks down his TransCon run - 2,870 miles in 66 days - and how that effort wasn’t about the finish line, but about raising hope and funds for a mission bigger than himself.

Now coaching athletes and chasing ultra-endurance goals and records, Kallup emphasizes the need for spiritual discipline to match physical discipline, and the power of setting goals that challenge you to become someone new. His story is a reminder that no one is too far gone - with the right support, mindset, and purpose, change is possible.
