TODAY MATT GREEN JOINED ME FROM PENZANCE UK

WHEN MATT WAS EXPERIENCING INCREASED DRINKING

HE DECIDED HE WOULD TRY RUNNING

AND DURING THOSE TIMES STAYED SOBER

AFTER REALIZING THERE WAS A BIGGER PROBLEM WITH THE ALCOHOL

HE DECIDED TO GET SOBER

AND HAS NOW BEEN IN RECOVERY 5 YRS

HE HAS RETURNED TO RUNNING AND COMPLETED HIS FIRST 1/2 MARATHON

TODAY HE WORKS FULL TIME

HE IS AN ACTIVE FATHER OF TWO AND RUNS MOST DAYS

HIS DIET HAS CHANGED

AND HE IS A STRONG BELIEVER IN BALANCE USES APPS FOR CALORIE COUNTING

MY NET DIARY AND FROM COUCH TO 5K

AND THAT MONITORS HIS ACTIVITY

BUT NOT IN EXCESS HE CONCENTRATES ON BALANCE

WE DISCUSS SOME OF THE BARRIERS

AGE AND OUR MINDS THAT SOMETIMES MAKE GETTING ACTIVE HARD

AND ARE THEY IMAGINED OR UNIMAGINED

THE SENSE WE ARE NOT ENOUGH OR COMPARING

AND IMPORTANCE TO SHARE OUR EXPERIENCES WITH OTHERS BE PROUD OF THE DAY WE ARE IN AND WHAT WE DO START OVER THE NEXT DAY

ENJOY MATTS JOURNEY

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE ... AND TOMORROW IS ANOTHER DAY FOR US ALL A CLEAN SLATE
