In the afterglow of the London Marathon, Ollie and Cess discuss the relationship between running and giving up drinking.
They explore how running can serve as a substitute for boozing, and socialising, and how it can help individuals get on track with sobriety.
The conversation touches on the impact of running on mental health – just ask Russ Cook (aka Hardest Geezer). Charlie Allen, the Founder of Run Social – "a running pub" – who is "99% sober" and this week's guest, ran alongside Russ during his last marathon across Africa, in Tunisia, earlier in April.
Another former drinker, reality TV star Spencer Matthews, has announced that he is attempting a world record to run 30 marathons in 30 days through the Jordanian desert. He's mentioned in booze news.
Other booze news includes a man with a bizarre condition that makes his body produce alcohol and the alarming rate of child alcohol abuse in Great Britain – the highest in the world.
