With that being said, you know that the program that I work is a one day at a time program, not taking advantage, not taking it for granted, and I can never just tell myself: hey, I'm never going to drink again.
Fitness can be a lifeline in the battle against addiction, and Robert's story is a shining example. In this episode of 'Staying Fit ODAAT', host Miguel Reyes sits down with Robert, an ultra runner who turned his life around through sheer determination and a passion for running.
Robert, the older brother of a previous guest, Michael, may not have been an athlete in his youth, but his journey into the world of ultra running during recovery is nothing short of remarkable. From his early struggles with alcohol and drugs to hitting rock bottom, Robert opens up about the pivotal moments that led him to embrace fitness as a cornerstone of his recovery.
He shares the highs and lows, the setbacks and triumphs, and how running became more than just a physical activity—it became a symbol of hope and resilience. This episode isn't just about running; it's about finding strength in the face of adversity and discovering new paths to wellness. Whether you're on your own journey to sobriety, supporting someone who is, or simply looking for inspiration, Robert's story offers a powerful message of hope and transformation.
Tune in to hear how he went from struggling with addiction to conquering ultra marathons, and let his story remind you that no matter how tough life gets, there's always a way forward.
