SCOTT BRITTON: CANCER, LONELINESS AND MOVING FORWARD

Scott Britton, founder of Battle Cancer, joins me to discuss how to battle Cancer, handle loneliness and cope with feeling like a burden.

BIO:

Having started out in powerlifting almost 9 years ago, Scott won titles across 3 countries and competed and won medals at international events in multiple weight classes. At this time he decided to use fitness as a way to bring people together to fundraise for cancer charities after being affected all his life by loss from cancer. With the birth of Battle Cancer Scott changed from elite powerlifting to try and transition to Crossfit and functional -fitness competitions. After several years in Crossfit he has competed at Sanctional events in the elite level from Ireland, Norway all the way to Miami. As a regular contributor to publications including Men's Health and Eqsuire, Scott is not only the founder and director of Battle Cancer the international fitness fundraising movement but an advocate for using fitness as a tool to support mental health and wellness.
