The Imponderables
By Edward Gibbes on 23/02/2006 14:41:14
Since the dawn of time The Runner has been struggling to break free from the grip of the questions that will not die
Running is such a simple sport, we are always told. It's just a case of putting one foot in front of the other. That's true to an extent, but beneath the serene surface we present to the outside world, we all know there's a seething ocean of worry
