Episode 28 of The Final Sprint Podcast features my interview with Brent Ion; an incredible person whose love for running and desire to help others amalgamated into an inspirational and impressive program called HomeTeam.
Brent is a 46 year old financial consultant for Smith Barney and is on the Board of Director’s of The Lord’s Place; a non-profit organization dedicated to breaking the cycle of homelessness. Brent formulated HomeTeam, a unique marathon training program for homeless individuals in an around Palm Beach Country, Florida, because of his desire to do more to improve the quality of life of others.
With the help of Brent, The Lord’s Place and the community, HomeTeam has been successful in helping homeless runners to change their lives, beat addictions, improve their health, boost their confidence and so much more.
