In 2006 I made the 800m final at the World Indoor Athletics Championships in Moscow. A year later I quit the sport for rock and roll. I was only 24 years old. I lost my way and put on weight over a 12 year period of boozing and rocking. In 2019 I decided something had to change, so I started running again. 5 stone later I ran a 34 minute 10km and I feel better than ever. Here is my story via the Megabus to the Ritz - your weekly night time commute to a better version of yourself.

Here we go. This was the toughest episode to record yet. Why was it so tough? Well, these are tough and strange times we're experiencing at the moment. The whole world is facing the same problem, and the current lockdown has forced me to take a good look at myself in an attempt work out why I run. Is it because I'm a selfish idiot? Conclusion: of course I'm not. I'm caring and full of love. Here, take a handful of positivity from your favourite bus driver.
