Allie Bailey thought that running would save her from her demons. She started running to stop drinking but found herself addicted to both things simultaneously. While running - and often winning - ultra-marathons all over the globe, Allie was often drunk and almost always hungover. Soon she realised she couldn’t outrun her bad habits. Following lockdown, a breakdown and an attempt to take her own life, she finally found a way of getting and staying sober . Allie tells me her story with honesty, humour and tons of swearing.
