At the age of 13, Brad Ludden’s parents told him he could do anything he wanted with his life. He took it literally and did the thing he loved the most–whitewater kayaking.

Join me as I talk to Brad about first descents on the river and how he turned his love for adventure into life-changing camps for cancer sufferers.
