Kennith Pinckney is an endurance athlete and entrepreneur based in San Diego, California. At the age of 29, Kennith decided to join the United States Navy - not knowing how to swim. After 50 tries, 3 months and walking to the swimming facilities in the middle of winter, Kennith finally passed his Navy swimming qualifications.
Thus began life as a career Navy man. Kennith describes his first few years as "getting by" which finally caught up with him, when he failed his weigh-in. At 240 lbs, Kennith faced a new challenge to change or simply stay the same. Kennith decided it was time for a big change. He decided to start running.
With the help of his coach, Kennith lost weight, passed his weight quals in the Navy and eventually became CFL Command Fitness Leader in his Naval Reserve Unit. Kennith says: "I was transformed physically and mentally...I went from running 14:00/mile to running 11:00/mile...So far, I have lived a life full of uncertainties, hopelessness, hopeful, failures, triumph, different directions, anxiety, feeling of unworthiness , gratefulness, disappointments, and gratitude which I am at the present moment."
Kennith invites all runners to remember: "The journey we all live is going to be hills, valleys, peaks, mountains to climb. There is no limit on what we can do, what we can overcome, how much we can do, we all can be BOUNDLESS. To be boundless is to Love it, Hate it, Embrace….the Journey, your journey. Hopefully we all can go on this journey together and be BOUNDLESS."
