Anup's story:

After being verbally abused by my father for being a ‘fat boy’  I thought it was time to sort my life out and run a half marathon. I set the task of running 1000 miles in a calendar year, I’m also currently failing at that too…. when I think about it I’m not really winning at anything so chances are I’ll have a nervous breakdown during this half marathon. But it’ll be worth is as you donated me to have this nervous breakdown :)

Lucy's story:

Anup bullied me into it. 

Update:  Anup has 'pulled a hamstring' (yeah right...) and is currently on the bench... watch this space.
