And all of this comes from making a decision three and a half four years ago to give up alcohol, which I never ever believed was resulting in me doing these things. It keeps on coming back, as it's a consistency is something that you guys talk about, as well as being a massive thing.
Ever wondered how far a person can go once they quit alcohol? Meet Andy Delderfield, a man who traded his dark days of heavy drinking for the icy trails of ultra-marathons in Sweden. Hosted by Sharon Hartley and Ben Anderson, this episode of 'Over The Influence' dives into Andy's incredible transformation. Sharon, who has known Andy for years, recounts his shift from a struggling ex-pat in Spain to a marathon-running powerhouse.
Andy uses a powerful analogy about climbing outside the jar to see what’s inside, describing how he only realized the extent of his drinking problem once he stepped away from it. Now, with a clear mind and a healthy body, Andy tackles marathons across the globe, including an ice ultra-marathon in Sweden! This episode isn't just about running; it's about facing fears, stepping out of comfort zones, and the life-changing rewards of sobriety.
Sharon and Ben also discuss the changing culture around alcohol and the importance of community support. If you're curious about the incredible feats you can achieve with determination and a supportive community, Andy's story is a must-listen.
