Fifty Miles on Acid | Interview with Lucas Simon Drake

Lucas Simon Drake joins me to share his experience of running a 50 mile trail ultramarathon tripping on acid. Why did he do it? How did it go? Does he see it as a PED or did in hinder his performance?

Please, listen to this interview with an open mind. It’s pretty damn interesting.

If you’re going to try something like this, please do it on your own and don’t put the RDs at risk of liability and/or losing their permits.

The look of pure bliss: 150 micrograms of LSD during a 10k.
