Eric Beach and I have been running parallel for a couple years now. He is a combat veteran, Ironman triathlete, father, and has overcome a lot from his time in the Army and deployment to Iraq. We talk about the rude awakening that is reentry to civilian life and his journey through addiction and chaos to being featured on Ironman's Quest for Kona television show, leading Project Echelon and hosting his podcast, The Art of Endurance.
Prepare to dive deep as Eric describes going from the brink of suicide to finding his purpose and inspiring others. I'm honored to call Eric a brother in arms and fellow Ironman.
Connect with Eric and Project Echelon:

Mike started the Transitions from War blog to talk about his struggles getting home, PTSD, and addiction and then finding endurance sports to really begin feeling whole again.
Each week, we talk with experts in the field or from personal experience on what it takes to find wellness in Mind, Body, and Spirit.
