In this episode, Katie sits down with world champion marathoner, former Wall Street trader, and relentless competitor Ken Rideout. They dive into the mindset that transformed him from an opioid addict to one of the fastest runners over 50 in the world. Ken shares the brutal lesson he learned after quitting a race, why the pain of giving up lasts a lifetime, and how he rebuilt his life from rock bottom. He opens up about the daily battle with self-doubt, his obsession with consistency, and the surprising truth about what it really takes to push past pain and fear. He also shares powerful reflections on grit, identity, and why he’s never truly satisfied — even after proving everyone wrong.-----DONATE TO EMILY KLUEH: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.gofundme.com/f/4sdbz-support-emilys-battle-against-cancer⁠⁠⁠-----Subscribe and watch full video episodes on ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠, and follow us on social media (⁠⁠⁠@unfilteredwaterspodcast⁠⁠⁠) for clips, bonus content, and updates throughout the week.-----FOLLOW KATIE:⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠-----FOLLOW MISSY:⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠-----SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSKreatures of Habit - Go to ⁠https://kreaturesofhabit.com⁠ and use UNFILTERED15 for 15% off your first purchase!Momentous: Head to https://livemomentous.com and use code UNFILTERED for up to 35% off your first order.IM8 - Go to ⁠https://im8health.com/discount/WATERS10⁠ Use code WATERS10 for 10% off!Dream Recovery: Visit https://dreamrecovery.io to have your best sleep ever.
