Bottom Of The Barrel

101 Years Young!

Buster Martin, who went back to work at age 99 as a part time plumber, is planning on running the Londo Marathon on April 13th. If he finishes, he will be the oldest marathoner ever and break the existing record of 95 years old set by Fauja Singh in 2005 in Scotland.

And how does a 101 year old running celibrate finshing a 42 kilometre run? "I'll do what I always do and have a pint and a fag," he said. Martin continues "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?"

Yes you are Buster, yes you are. Good Luck next month!
