speed Your Love to me

So, we are sitting this morning, having breakfast and watching the hopefuls of the London marathon 

Boy says. 'i wonder if I could run a marathon. I wonder how far I could run ...
We all gave him a number 5 miles, 6 miles, 8 miles ... 

He went up stairs, came back down in his running shorts and took off 

Forty five minutes later we took off for the shops a coupk of things that never got picked up yesterday ...

We drove round the town.... Spotted Jess who went out for a walk just after Boy.

No sign of boy tho 

We drove round the town and the home.  I sat in the garden for half an hour while Si started on the dinner 

After about forty five minutes I got a text.... I'm gonna be finishing in about fifteen minutes can you pick me up ?

He was thirteen and a half miles away ... Give him a target and he's gotta exceed it 

He's now sitting on the sofa ... Aching all over but delighted with himself.   I doubt he ll be able to walk timrirw
