Go Jez. I think I had the pleasure of watching him speed off into the distance in the 2008 Tring2Town. The boy's a machine!! |
| Mike Mason |
a machine he is Graham..in 9th place at moment. Scott Jurek has dropped out..it is riveting following especially after watching CSN and Neil Young at Glastonbury...sheer class..... |
| Mike Mason |
He's just gone through Foresthill at 62 miles, he's up to 7th, way to go and Bruce Springsteen is playing in my room...well on the telly |
| Mike Mason |
The online tracking system was not the best in the world..he was 9th when I went to bed..the system now shows him 5th with 5 miles to go.
But he has just sent text: '3rd, just under 17 hrs. Overtook 3 in last 3 miles. Happiest man alive!' Well done Jez!
