After battling an alcohol addiction for years, Louis M. Cormier found purpose in exercising and solace on the Appalachian Trail. In From Addiction to Fitness you will walk with Louis as he overcomes his addiction and turns his life around to become healthy. Louis always enjoyed the outdoors and being a volunteer firefighter. But he also liked to drink. Things got so bad he crashed his truck and even contemplated suicide. He had to be hospitalized and go through detox. He hit rock bottom. That's when Louis turned to fitness to keep his mind from booze. Starting with some 5k runs, Louis pushed himself further to 10k and then marathons. Always one to set a high bar, Louis signed up for an Ironman Triathlons despite not knowing how to swim. He learned to swim and finished the race. Overcoming all odds has become a common theme in Cormier's life. After a few more triathlons, he decided to take on a greater challenge-hiking the 2,190-mile Appalachian Trail. It was on the trail that Louis found what he was made of. From Addiction to Fitness is a powerful memoir of overcoming and enduring and finding peace on the trail.
