Olympic Athlete, Stephen Heidenreich Overcame a Traumatic Brain Injury to Succeed - Here's His Story

Stephen Heidenreich is an Olympic athlete, a sub-4-minute miler - only one of 1,400 men in history to achieve this. While training for the USA Olympic team, a near-fatal hit and run accident changed his life forever. His neurosurgeon gave him a five percent chance to live. Despite a traumatic brain injury and these unfavorable odds, Stephen completed a Master of Business Administration at the prestigious Indiana University Kelley School of Business and a Master’s in Education specializing in Special Education. In the face of tremendous physical and mental challenges, Stephen trained for the 1980 Olympics in Moscow.
