  • s4/e15 Quitting Alcohol & Finding Running with Luc Zoratto @marathon2sobriety
    Apr 26 2024

    This one is for my sober and sober-curious runners out there!! Luc Zoratto's journey into running and sobriety is a tale of community, empowerment, and self-discovery. After being in the "sober closet" for 5 years, he decided to share his sobriety journey publicly on LinkedIn after hitting a major milestone: qualifying for the Boston Marathon. Today, we're talking about quitting drinking, the personal nature of sobriety, and of course, the messy, hard work that comes with pushing yourself athletically AND personally!


    Luc Zoratto (@marathon2sobriety) is a Sober Dad, Husband, Marathoner & Alcohol-Free Life Coach. He helps empower high-performing professionals and entrepreneurs to overcome the limitations that alcohol and drugs have on their lives. His mission is to promote a growth mindset that challenges the belief that hard work and alcohol go hand in hand, and inspire others to embrace a healthy and fulfilling lifestyle to help people realize their full potential.

A great podcast to know more about running

I went through 33 episodes in a couple of weeks or so. Elisabeth has a very concise and detailed way of explain 3 the topics.
I loved that her guests had a lot of experience. Also, she covers specific topics in every episode. Which is well documented.
Also, the relaxed and sometimes funny tone she uses is enjoyable.
Thank you for all the work, and effort put into this podcast.
You can try and see if you enjoy them as I did. I found the first 8 or 6 episodes to be more basic, and enlightening on key topics.
Also, she is open and responsive on answering questions. Thank you.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
