If you erase addiction, you have to replace it with things of greater value, not just one, because I'm sure you get what we get out here, which is well, yeah, but you're switching addiction for running, and it's like you guys know, it's not even on the same stratosphere.
Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around through sheer determination and a pair of running shoes? Meet Henry Ward, an ultra-runner and staunch advocate for recovery. In this episode of the Addict II Athlete Podcast, Henry opens up about his tumultuous journey from the streets of Boston to the sun-soaked paths of Arizona. Battling addiction wasn't just a personal struggle; it was a test of his marriage and his will to start afresh in a new place.
Henry talks about the emotional isolation that came with his addiction and the therapeutic interventions that eventually guided him towards recovery. Running became more than just a sport; it was his lifeline, helping him build stronger relationships and a healthier lifestyle. Now, through his nonprofit 'Running Without the Devil', he’s on a mission to inspire others battling addiction.
Tune in to hear how Henry swapped his addiction for ultra running, and how he’s using his passion to spread hope and support for sobriety.
