Meet Kenyon McGriff

It's easy to be healthy in a nice neighborhood, with tree lined streets, sidewalks, good grocery stores and farmers markets but Kenyon McGriff didnt grow up in a neighborhood like that. Weighing 270 pounds by the time he was in 10th grade, Kenyon learned that his environment, with all of its fast food restaurants, corner markets, and dimly lit sidewalks, was more of a challenge to his health than he had ever imagined.
