Helly Welly Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Well done him, one marathon is an amazing achievement so to do numerous is just incredible. I'm chuffed that i've managed to walk down to school today to collect DD for the first time in well over a year. I've been gradually building up my strength through physio. I can't imagine ever running a marathon. I quite like Katie Price too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missuscluck Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 What a nice story. Well done to your dad. I always think you cant help but like Katie and Peter in a funny kind of way. She always seems to me to be down to earth and a very hard worker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theherd123 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 How fab is your dad?!!! Way to go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Well done Dad! I barely managed the fun run -8.5 miles- let alone 26. I've seen bits of that show they have, and thought they were quite a funny couple together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedusA Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Brilliant! Well done Lisa's Dad! My brother runs marathons regularly (one or two a month) and has done the London Marathon several times. He missed this year due to injury and is only doing half-marathons ATM. His longest run ever is some diabolical 50-mile thing that he has also done a few times. I think he's barking, but as his cholesterol is 3.2 and mine is 8.8, maybe it's not him that's so daft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karen & co. Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Well done to your Dad that's an amazing thing to do, I always sit watching bits of the marathon feeling very humbled by the effort people put in. Karen xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saronne Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Good for him! Just one observation... I hope that Katie Price wears a jolly good sports bra! My dad is 77 and still swims 10 lengths daily - he recently scaled down from 20 lengths. Ow! I was thinking the same thing!! (re: Katie Price, that is!)
