Run Along

What happens after you capture the hearts of a nation and etch your name into the history books? Move to a tiny island off the coast of Italy. Sit in your ice house in Minnesota and contemplate your past and future. That’s what Carson Shanks did at least. Carson was a member of last year’s Loyola Chicago Ramblers, a team that went on one of the most unbelievable and inspiring runs college sports has witnessed. Like ever. He has embarked on new adventures since then. Carson is retired now and has found a way to repurpose his love for basketball. Take a listen to his story.

The scoreboard buzzer sounds one last time. Now what? People share their stories of the major life change that comes with saying goodbye to their sport and finding success in the next phase.
