From Dive Bars To Finish Lines

Back in the day, my life was a never-ending loop of work, booze, and regret. Night after night, I'd burn through my tip money on rounds of margaritas and beer, convincing myself I deserved it. My evenings were a blur of karaoke tunes in dive bars, where closing time came too soon. By day, I'd attempt this half-hearted march towards health—running, eating greens, you name it. But shedding pounds? Forget about it. The weight clung to me like a bad reputation.

Here's the kicker—I never pinned the blame on my drinking. That realization? It hit me like a truck.

So here's the deal: That transformation you're dreaming about—just chase it! Don't hang around waiting for someone to nod along. If I had, I’d still be stuck in that endless cycle of hangovers and empty bottles, tied to a job that sucked the life out of me and a marriage that was going nowhere fast. Yeah, I'd crafted quite the mess, but guess what? I clawed my way out. ✌️

🚦Stop Waiting, Start Doing: Grab that green light and own it! Your moment is right freaking now.

⭐️Dreaming of a marathon? Sign up, lace up, and hit the pavement. ⭐️Ready to ditch the drink? Pour it down the sink, shift your mindset, and find your tribe in sobriety groups. ✔️Worried about the naysayers? 😳😳 ✔️Think they'll judge you for running too much or calling it quits on booze? 😳😳 ✔️Scared they'll label you boring without a drink in hand? 😳😳

Here’s a thought: Forget THEIR opinions. What do YOU want? ✔️Do you see a happier, healthier you sans alcohol? ✔️Are you itching to conquer that race? ✔️Is it time for a fresh start? ✔️Envious of those hitting sobriety milestones?

Guess what? That could be you, too.

Here's your go-ahead: Chase that dream! Block out the noise and just do it. Your path is yours alone—others can’t possibly understand your journey. But know this, you're not solo in this. Need proof? Look around. This crew? We're all rooting for you. 💪

It's about sticking with your tribe—the ones who get it. 🏃‍♀️✌️
