| About us | Not that everyone needs to run a marathon, but everyone battling addiction should have the opportunity to learn that regular exercise is physically, mentally, and emotionally healing. And, training toward a challenging goal with the support of their sober community, provides even more benefits. Through our goal-oriented group running and walking programs, we promote a body-mind-soul approach to recovery while reinforcing the life skills and mindset needed to support long term sobriety. |
