    Bloke at work lost around 5 stone last year & just ran the London marathon (what is it, 10 days ago?). He's about 50 years old & he was at work on the monday after the marathon at 5:30am. He ran round in about 4 hours & he had a huge smile on his face for a week

    Top bloke, raised a fortune for charity.

    If you want to guarantee a place I think you need to run for one of the main charities. He ran for 'Children with Leukemia'.
    No sympathy for the devil; keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride...
