Zero and hero

And no, I’m not going to link to that loser. Instead, I’m going to link to a genuinely worthy man, namely Ben Hammersley, who has put up his account of the Marathon Des Sables - a one-week, 240km run across the Sahara Desert, which he completed with a broken ankle. We are not worthy. An astonishing account of endurance and of the spirit and camaraderie of all who took part.
Right, it’s Friday and it’s 5.30. I’m off to the Eagle to leverage short-term value-added empowerment.
