Running For Distance podcast | Episode 3 | Anthony Bailey from Running For My Best Life

#RunningForDistance #RunningForMyBestLife #podcast

In Episode 3 of season 3 I sit down and visit with none other than Anthony Bailey. He is a fellow YouTuber who I have become acquainted with and have enjoyed a lot of discussion back and forth on our channels. Anthony has a remarkable story to share in overcoming Domestic Child Abuse, alcohol and drug abuse and also battling his own struggles over the years. It was a lot of fun chatting with Anthony and learning more about his passions of running, sharing his story and also his non-profit organization he has started with his wife, Jen. Run For Grace is a non-profit who's mission is to provide aide to those in need, the less fortunate, and to assist in the prevention of homelessness while promoting an active lifestyle with an emphasis on running.

Not to mention he plans on completing the Goggins 4x4x48 and a 50K in hopes to raise money for different organizations.
