YOU DO YOU.

For me, starting in 2026, I’ve chosen to live alcohol-free. It’s part of my commitment to fighting Parkinson’s disease.

The biggest benefit of alcohol, for me, has always been the social side—having a drink in hand while connecting with people. But that doesn’t disappear with a non-alcoholic beer. It works the same. It’s simply a choice.

I chose Athletic Brewing for this post because of their strong connection to triathlon and their continued support of the endurance community. They also happen to make a wide variety of solid NA beers.

Alcohol won’t help my training.
It won’t help my Parkinson’s.
And it won’t improve my quality of life.

So beginning in 2026, I’m done with alcohol.

It’s a personal choice. YOU DO YOU.
