Nathan Foster is an Army combat Vet turned IRONMAN. His secret weapon? The power of fitness and 🦅 🔥 Nathan's post-deployment struggle is one many Veterans know well. He used alcohol to cope with his PTSD. Then he found fitness. "One day, I laced up my running shoes and went out the door. I soon realized running provides a positive physical release to manage my stress and a dedicated quiet time I needed to process things," Nathan shared. Two years later, he completed his first IRONMAN. Today he's Team RWB's Multi-Sport Activity Group Leader and focused on turning the solo pursuit of triathlons into a team effort.

“Nothing that’s worth it in life will come easy. You have already learned and seen that throughout your service. Joining Team RWB adds a support system that offers unique veteran perspective and the ability to interact with active duty/veterans at all stages of life who are active.” Julian Perez, an Active Duty Marine, joined Team RWB in 2014 while serving in Houston, Texas. Today, he’s setting his sights on completing a 50k this year at a 9-minute pace as an Eagle Ambassador. “The inspiration to serve as an ambassador is the same inspiration to serve which is to help people. In this capacity, I aspire to inspire active duty, veterans, and supporters to set/ reach goals.” For Julian, Team RWB is about community and growth: “Focusing on health and wellness with Team RWB has a certain synergy that is brought when active duty and veteran populations who still get after it are brought together.” Thanks for sharing your #EagleFire, with Eagle Nation, Julian! 🦅🔥
