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.
My dreams have been haunted by the new Tesla Taxi that drives infinite loops around Llanelli.
This week I talk about the moment I lost a version of myself and found a better version of myself in the shower.
I discuss my running this week where I managed to run more than 70km for the first time since August last year.
Books discussed: Long Live The Post Horn! by Vigdis Hjorth and Panpsychism in the West by David Skrbina.

The Psychedelic One
This week I talk about the power of memories, and how sometimes we need them, and other times we should push them to the back of our mind.
I'm also chatting about Running Reviews because they are back after a four week absence. There's the usual surreal, dreamlike chat and I'll also be telling you about the books I've read and the albums I've enjoyed. So, sit back, get comfortable and enjoy the ride.
Oh yeah, and as the title suggests, this is quite a trippy one.
Thank you to BrainGirl for the amazing words at the beginning!
