Saw him running in Preston Park earlier today, must admit didn't look at all well.

Was he his normal "stone faced" self?

He never looked 'well' even in his prime. At least he did not try to get his mistress to have an abortion like another well known middle distance runner.

He only turned 50 last month.

Trigger, does your brother own the kebab shop near Worthing station, I always thought it was a gamble eating anything from there, I was usually proven right...

I do not have a brother, so no.

Met him back in '82 I think, he came to my Sports Day at Withdean. Those were the days

Nick Ovett?

Didnt he try out as a sportsman himself? dizzying heights of the British bobsleigh team or something. What does he do for a living now?
