Recommended Posts


A mates daughter goes to the school, the parents and teachers do a good job of raising money for the kids, iv'e donated stuff iv'e made to auction off a few times, very worthy cause, and every penny does go on the kids, guarantee it. Fair play to the old fella, hope he makes it.

Impossible. Just like that Eddie Izards attempt a few years ago. What was it 50 marathons in 40 days in high heels? Piss take!

 

Eddie done well bit of a tough old boot him

 

As a transvestite comic who is prone to put on weight and had never run farther than five miles, Eddie Izzard is not the obvious candidate to run 1,100 miles around Britain. But the 47-year-old stand-up and actor will today drag his aching limbs from the Olympic park to Trafalgar Square in the last of an astonishing 43 marathons he has completed in just 52 days.

Pausing in sight of St Albans Cathedral to demolish a chicken mayonnaise sandwich and chocolate biscuits, Izzard admitted his charity run from London to Cardiff, Belfast and Edinburgh, in aid of Sports Relief, had become "science fiction" and he was beyond exhaustion.
