He says he knows exactly where he’d be if he hadn’t found The Phoenix: “Right on the street with the same people, with the same misery.” That’s exactly what Strode, a former addict himself, hoped for when he founded The Phoenix. He says he’s been sober for a little more than 21 years. Strode discovered fitness was key to achieving and then maintaining his sobriety.
