Humans of the Trail Episode 35 - "Walking saved my life" with Dave Thomas

Humans of the Trail

Dave Thomas started his career on the back of his love of fitness as he launched a personal training business, which spiraled into running a popular London gym chain called The Foundry. But it was Daves's love of the outdoors, and desire to step away from, his words repeatedly 'counting to 10', for his clients that eventually led to a life living in a 400-acre property on the Dales Way trail.

Yet, this is not the crux of our story. It's Daves's battle with multiple head injuries, depression, and experiencing suicidal thoughts that led to his decision to walk the length of Britain, supported by his Wife and Daughter that ultimately saved him and shaped a new perspective.

I hope you enjoy this sincere and honest podcast with Dave, as we unpack his story.
