I refuse to use the word relapse because I think it's a coward's word. I said I have been around recovery since this is so I've been around.
Ever wondered how exercise can play a role in addiction recovery? In this engaging episode of Friends in Recovery, hosts Carl D., Sweets, and Jersey Ed welcome back Bob Mohr, a passionate runner whose story is both inspiring and eye-opening. Bob opens up about how running has been a cornerstone in his journey to sobriety, helping him stay on track even through the toughest times, including living with HIV.
Imagine starting with just one mile on June 1st and pushing through to 30 miles by the end of the month! That’s exactly what Bob did in his recent 'calendar run', mentored by none other than Jersey Ed himself. This episode isn't just about running; it's about resilience, mentorship, and breaking through stigma.

But through it all, his commitment to running and the support from friends in recovery have kept him going. Whether you're looking for motivation to lace up your running shoes or seeking stories of hope and perseverance, this episode offers valuable insights into the physical and mental benefits of exercise in recovery. Tune in to hear Bob’s heartfelt story and discover how you, too, can find strength in unexpected places.
