Charlie Engle: Running Through Recovery and Beyond

When you take away drugs and alcohol and you tap into what is your potential and explore what that is- because I don't even think you know what your full potential is yet, but at least you're- you're going out on the horizon and looking for it, but that would not even be on the table if you were still drinking and drugging Today.
Imagine running across the Sahara Desert. Now, imagine doing it while overcoming addiction. That's the incredible journey of Charlie Engle, an Ultramarathon runner and author of 'Running Man: A Memoir'. In this episode of 'Recovery Is Possible', host Michael Van Meter dives into Charlie's story of recovery from drugs and alcohol. Charlie opens up about how fitness became his lifeline, helping him navigate the rocky road to sobriety.
The conversation isn't just about running; it's about resilience, the human spirit, and the parallels between ultra-endurance sports and long-term sobriety. Charlie shares how he channels his energy into upcoming projects and emphasizes the importance of facing life's challenges head-on. If you're looking for inspiration or a fresh perspective on recovery, this episode offers a compelling blend of personal anecdotes and broader insights.
Tune in to hear Charlie's message of hope and discover how pushing physical limits can mirror the journey to a healthier, sober life.
