I have forgotten his name, doh! A man who has a book out about how running can help to overcome trauma. I only caught the last few minutes, sounded pretty interesting. He was the victim of a stabbing and was talking about how running helped him and other people who had suffered awful things.

Found it on sounds... any idea what time it was? 2 hour show to wade through, but I’m on a 10k tomorrow so I’ll get through the first half!

I think it must have been about half way through the show.

Cool, thanks... I’ll try to find it before I set off... not sure I can manage the Trump bit of the show without stamping on my ear buds 🤣

If you manage to get to it without stamping on your earbuds, can you please remind me of his name? I had a quick look on amazon but there are millions of books about running on there, none of which sounds like his!

Running is really amazing that’s for sure. What time was it on? I wonder if it’s available on replay?

It’s on sounds... it was the Jeremy Vine show.

He was great to listen to during a run... inspirational stuff, how could I stop because it got a little tough while listening to this guy?
