101 and still running


I saw a story on Yahoo News about a 101 year old training for the London Marathon. Apparently he just completed a half marathon this past weekend.

This guy is awesome: “If I finish, I’ll do what I always do and have a pint and a fag,” he said. “People ask what is my secret but I haven’t got one. They say fags and booze are bad for you — but I’m still here, aren’t I?”
