Diplo has revealed that he dropped acid before running the Los Angeles marathon in March, but “really paid” at the end for his decision to take the drug.The DJ and producer completed the run in three hours and 55 minutes, and later shared on Instagram that he decided to take LSD shortly before it.In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter Diplo said that his decision was wise for allowing him to run at a good pace – but that really exhausted him.“I probably took half a tab of acid at the marathon, but it really motivated me, because I was running at the fastest pace I’ve ever ran,” he said.“You also have all these runners around you, so your energy’s there.
