    Jade Goody has been criticised for not training properly for the London marathon.

    Goody was forced to quit the 26.2mile run after completing 21 miles due to exhaustion, she later revealed that she only took part in four training sessions and had been binging on curries and booze before the race.



    This was from 2006 or so. To be fair, 21 miles doesn't seem like a bad effort all things considered!

    A guy called Declan Moffit once attempted running a marathon without training. Only got a few miles though. See below.
