Story

[SPOILER ALERT] - A non-stop run; unimaginable 6 weeks ago. At 2:16 slightly slower than the women's world record marathon pace; I mean she only ran twice as far! A finish is a win.

Not that Bill and Ted, but a pair of aging imposters who have had more than a few encounters with cancer. If I need to tell you a sob story then you've been living a charmed life. We, like everyone else have been seen friends and family through the cancer 'experience'. We are raising money, so that it might get a little better.

The training has been pretty poor - but I've just discovered I've been being poisoned by a small gas leak in the house. That's sorted and I feel better, but Ted only has 4 weeks to get close to Bill's standard (spoiler: it ain't goin' to happen!)
