Griffin Pinkow is the founder of the Foreseeable Future Foundation, a nonprofit whose mission is to help individuals who are blind or visually impaired through sports and recreation. Griffin has run four marathons, created his own non profit organization to help the visually impaired community, and is now attempting to make the Paralympic Team in Tandem Cycling, all by the age of 30. Going from a healthy, active teenager to slowly losing his sight due to a diagnosis of Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) at age 11, Griffin has demonstrated what it means to persevere through unexpected change, and has truly made a difference in hundreds of lives others by showing them how to stay active and endure in the face of challenge. Listen as we discuss the work of FFF, tandem cycling, Griffin's entire journey, and how he's turned his own story into major impact and support for others.
