Racing for Recovery | Award-Winning Documentary on Addiction & Transformation

What if recovery wasn’t just about quitting—but transforming your entire life? Racing for Recovery (2024) follows the powerful journey of Todd Crandell, who turned personal tragedy and addiction into a life-saving movement. After losing his mother to suicide and battling substance abuse, Todd found a new path in 1993—one built on endurance sports, plant-based living, and purpose. This award-winning documentary goes beyond traditional recovery stories. It introduces a bold, non-12-step approach where physical fitness becomes a cornerstone of sobriety. Through deeply human stories, you’ll meet individuals like Sam and Dean, who overcame crack addiction and now help others heal, and Shane, who pushes his limits to complete his first Ironman Triathlon. From running and cycling to swimming and mental resilience, Racing for Recovery challenges how we think about addiction—and shows how it can be transformed into strength, discipline, and purpose. ?
