Now i know this aint Arsenal related but did anyone catch the small documentary on Mr Izzard. 44 Marathons in 50 odd days, how insane is that!!!
The bloke is a true nutter/legend for doing something completely inhuman all in the name for charity. Also raised over Â£1mill on his own.
Edward it probably means nothing coming from me but you are a star with unbelievably tough mental strength and character.
Good on ya.

He did that last year....and has had to continute running a minimum of 15 miles a day since....to prevent the build up of lactic acid....so not only did he do all the training then the events....he had warm down as much as he did when training.....bloody hell

Never really got him as a comedian but found it incredible to watch him in agonising pain running through horrendous weather conditions from the comfort of my armchair in my nice cosy house
