When his addiction to drugs became too much, Nick spent all his money, lost his job, and hit bottom hard. The change he desperately needed was Back On My Feet, a non-profit that uses running as a tool of empowerment for those experiencing homelessness.

\"When we finish our run, we clap for each other,\" Nick explained.\" It's an amazing feeling when you wake up and come out there everyday with a group that doesn't judge you for what you've done in your past.\"

By exercising with other people with similar struggles, Nick (and others like him) gained confidence and self worth: two vital ingredients for a life of independence, employment, and most importantly, happiness.

Watch how this group is using running to work toward a more positive future.
