What a shame, but what a nice reaction by the general public! There is some goodness out there; easy to forget that sometimes.

Certainly a worthy cause!

I agree.

It's interesting that the Daily Torygraph apend a lot of copy on her brother who may have died following an OD. I wonder what the Daily Fail angle will be

It's sad that it takes a death to make people act though,

I always wonder about what the person was thinking just befor ether died...

Do they feel extreamly exhausted but continue pushing themselves not knowing they are doing damage? Or do they feel fine and then bang.

A guy who worked at David Lloyd here in Mk died a few years back while doing the marathon. He was 26!
