Punk singer and athlete John Joseph is living proof of the possibility of transformation.
As a teenager he was homeless, addicted to drink and drugs – he ‘spent all of ’88 on crack’ – shot, stabbed and banged up in jail.
The 1.0 version of John Joseph could hardly be further away from the man he is today.
Now, 35 years on, he is a vegan athlete with five Ironman triathlons under his belt – and he puts his metamorphosis down in part to his meat-free diet.
