Josh Hansen: From Addiction to Ultra Running with The Okayest Jogger

It doesn't have to be drugs or alcohol, it could be anything shoot, even working out, which we've had to really kind of make sure we keep balance, because it can become an addiction itself.
Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around from addiction to becoming an ultra runner? Meet Josh Hansen, the man behind the scenes of the Addict II Athlete Podcast and co-host of The Radio Ronin Podcast. In this episode, Coach Blu sits down with Josh to uncover his incredible journey of weight loss, ultra running, and the invaluable lessons he's picked up along the way.
Josh has been a key player in getting the podcast off the ground, but his personal story is just as compelling. He talks about how he battled addiction and transformed his life through running. One of the most powerful messages in this episode is about finding balance in recovery. Josh emphasizes that anything, even exercise, can become an addiction if not managed properly. He shares his insights on the importance of having a supportive community to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
But that's not all. Josh also opens up about overcoming learning disabilities, graduating college, and the role his family played in his recovery journey. He discusses the benefits of writing down progress and goals, and how left-right brain stimulation can boost mental health. If you're looking for inspiration and practical advice on recovery, this episode is a must-listen. Josh's story is a testament to the transformative power of ultra running and community support.
