Turn every mile into smile.

Welcome to my fitness journey – a transformation from an ex-smoker, regular drinking couch potato who avoided exercise at all costs to someone who has conquered Kilimanjaro and is currently training for their first ultra. My name is Mike, and I'm thrilled to share my story with you.

Just a few years ago, I found myself stuck in a sedentary lifestyle, plagued by unhealthy habits. Smoking, frequent indulgence in alcohol, and a lack of physical activity were the norms. It was a wake-up call when I realized that something needed to change. I embarked on a quest to transform my life, embracing fitness as my guiding light.

My journey was far from linear. I tried every trick, shortcut, and tip in the book, learning invaluable lessons along the way. Some methods proved effective, while others were just fleeting trends. Through perseverance, I discovered the areas that demanded hard work, dedication, and a commitment to achieving my goals.

One of the pinnacle moments of my journey was standing atop Kilimanjaro, a testament to the incredible transformation I underwent. Climbing Africa's highest peak was not just a physical feat but a symbol of overcoming personal hurdles and pushing beyond perceived limitations.

Currently, I'm on a new adventure – training for my first ultra. The road ahead is challenging, but the resilience and strength gained from my past experiences continue to drive me forward.

This blog is more than just a personal narrative; it's a dedication to helping others embark on their fitness journeys. I want to share the tips, tricks, and hard-earned lessons that propelled me from a sedentary lifestyle to the summit of Kilimanjaro. Whether you're just starting or looking for that extra push, join me in this space as we navigate the twists and turns of the path to a healthier, fitter life.
