Faces of Fearless – Michael-Ryan Kruger

Race Omaha is honored that one of our athletes – Michael-Ryan Kruger –  shared his story about how training for triathlons helps him cope with grief.

Any significant loss in your life can trigger a powerful grieving process. After a tragic loss of his wife, Michael-Ryan Kruger found that continuing to participate in triathlons was part of his therapy. “The energy that you get and the motivation you get from working out – it’s how I get through some of the challenges,” said Michael-Ryan.

Faces of Fearless is a storytelling series in Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska “Live Fearless” campaign celebrating people living their very best lives and inspiring others to do the same.
