I always remind myself that it's quality over quantity.
Have you ever wondered how someone can transform their life through sheer determination and a bit of water? In this episode of the Sobertown Podcast, Ben Tuff shares his extraordinary journey from battling alcohol addiction to becoming a marathon swimmer. Growing up between Atlanta, GA, and Jamestown, RI, Ben always had a love for the ocean. But it wasn't until 2012 that he decided to break free from alcohol's grip.
Despite not knowing how to swim initially, Ben found solace and strength in the sport of triathlon, which quickly led him to marathon swimming. Over the years, he has completed incredible feats like a 21-mile swim around Jamestown and a 24-mile swim from Providence to Jamestown. Ben's story is a testament to the power of perseverance and finding new passions in life.
Tune in to hear how he used swimming to find clarity and peace in sobriety, the importance of support networks, and his advocacy for living a full life without alcohol.
