Ricky Williams
Searcher, astrologer, philosopher, football player, Ricky Williams is one of the most enigmatic and misunderstood figures American sports has ever produced. Always the fastest kid on the block, he grew up to shatter twenty-one NCAA records, clinch the Heisman Trophy, and become one of the most electric running backs of his generation. He also became a target, vilified for no greater crime than wanting to carve his own path in life.
In 2004, with another positive marijuana test looming, he walked away from the NFL and multimillions for a seven-dollar-a-night tent in Australia. The press called him “America’s Pothead.” They said he was throwing his life away. Ricky knew he was saving it.
Candid and riveting, THE LONG RUN is the story of a man on and off the field, the record-setting college star and embattled NFL running back, and the searcher who emerged after the game: cannabis advocate years ahead of his time, entrepreneur, self-taught software developer, astrologer, chasing meaning far beyond fame, fortune, and football, while remaining unapologetically true to himself.
