Apparently I am ‘at risk’ by being 73 years old. I know I had a heart attack four years ago but no SpringSpring trouble since so hopefully I at least don’t qualify as having ‘underlying’ afflictions. Someone on the radio was going on about how we all should keep an eye out for folk such as me. Now there again I have a problem. After my heart trouble I was pestered for a couple of weeks after I’d gone home by two no doubt well-meaning women who kept popping up to see how I was doing. It ended after I put a note in my front room win- dow (they’d peer through to see if I was OK if I d i d n’t get to the front door within seconds). Any- way, on this occasion I left this note which read “I’m not dead, I’ve gone shopping.” And it worked! One more visit to tell me how much they had been amused by the note and never came again. Mind you, it’s as well that I have some good friends (and neighbours) that I could phone if I was really poorly because the advice I listened to on the radio just now commented on how every- one’s connection to various social media made things that much more easy.

A RUNNER will take on the challenge of his life by competing in eight long-distance races and in doing so complete more than 1,000 miles in memory of his dad. David Todd, 47, wants to raise money for the Liv- erpool Bereavement Service after he lost his father in 2017. He said: “Back in 2017 I completed six half mara- thons in six consecutive weeks to raise funds for Bowel Cancer UK, but during the challenge I unex- pectedly lost my dad and required the invaluable support of the Liverpool Bereavement Service to help me through it. “They provide the only dedicated bereavement service for children and adults in Merseyside and are 100% reliant on charitable donations to con- tinue their vital services, so I figured this was a great David Todd. way to say thank you to them and raise some much “I then head over to Conwy in November to com- needed funds for a good cause.” plete the half marathon up and over the Great What David is calling The Diamond Challenge, Orme before finishing the challenge with the Ain- starting this month will involve taking part in eight tree 10k in December. long-distance races during 2020. “I will complete around 250 miles during the David explains: “I will take on the Chester 10k races and require about 600 training miles so then then head back to Chester in May to complete the decided I may as well round it up to 1,000 miles. half marathon then a week later compete in the Liv- “Since I first laced up a pair of trainers and hit the erpool Rock n Roll Marathon. streets back in 2014 I have gone from an over- “This is followed by six weeks of intensive training weight couch potato to a run leader at city centre before attempting an ultra-endurance race in based Dockside Runners with multiple half mara- where I will attempt to run for 24 hours non-stop. thons and marathons under my belt. “I’ll have four weeks rest before undertaking “But if I was going to raise funds then I needed to another 24 hour endurance race on the Wirral followed come up with something unique and tough and by a return to Chester for the marathon in October. that’s where ‘The Diamond Challenge’was born.”
