Charlie Spedding has enjoyed two separate careers: as an athlete and a pharmacist. His running career peaked in his late 20s and early 30s. After finishing fourth in the Commonwealth Games and winning the National 10,000m title, he moved up to the marathon with great success. He won both the Houston and London Marathons in 1984 and, later that year, collected the bronze medal in the Olympic Marathon at the Los Angeles Games. The following year he set an English record for the marathon which stood for 29 years. His highly acclaimed book, From Last to First, describes the physical and psychological changes he made to overcome his previous disappointments and eventually fulfil his potential. Charlie has worked for most of his life as a Community Pharmacist. Having enjoyed good health and fitness, his fascination for the workings of the human body motivates him to help other people to be healthy. However, he left his medical profession feeling frustrated and disappointed because too many people were taking drugs without getting better. He has spent recent years searching for the answer to good health. In his new book, Stop Feeding Us Lies, he explains how most of the dietary advice we are given is wrong; how we are manipulated by vested interests; and how our common sense and instincts are being eroded by the constant barrage of 'expert opinion'. Most importantly, he also explains how to be healthy.
