Ironically might have been easier if he stayed on the drugs

That’s nothing, I knew a former crackhead who a ran to Windsor with no training, accidently

I doubt it’s intentional, but I wish the BBC would adjust its phrasing to “Man in recovery from drugs and alcohol”, they could do a lot of good to raise awareness of addiction as a health crisis

Is it quite a common thing for recovering drug addicts to get really into running?
I remember talking to a guy on a train and he was a former drug addict and he used to get on random trains and go to a random place and just go for a run in the countryside and see where it took him.

He only started running last July, that’s incredible! I started running last August and my furthest run has been 15k. Maybe I need to hit the drugs and booze before a run!
I think Russ Cook (the guy that ran the length of Africa) hasn’t been running too long either. Mad how some people can just take to it.

I can’t prove it but I believe running this much is detrimental to ones health. Like all things in life there needs to be a balance. There is such a thing as overexertion of the body.

What is going on with BBC headlines recently? I’m sure they are more vague and clickbaity then usual this year.
