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.

I've decided to slow it down. Recently my focus has been on running fast, whether that's over 5km or on the track, but the speed work has been pulling at my body and making it sore. I took a few days off and re-evaluated why I run. I'm now focused on running longer and slower, which has already proven to make me feel better mentally and physically. The only issue I have now, is where do I carry my snacks on these longer runs?
