    So a few mile into my run I was joined by a fit enough middle aged man. Nice guy - started chatting and I asked him if he did much running...:o:o

    Peter Maher
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Peter Kevin Maher (born March 30, 1960 in Ottawa, Ontario) is a former Canadian marathon runner who competed mainly in the 1990s. He was a resident of Thornhill, a suburb of Toronto. He was credited for a brief period with the record time for a half marathon. Maher represented Canada in the Olympic men's marathons in Seoul, 1988 and Barcelona, 1992. He is said to be the originator of the quote
    “ Running is a big question mark that’s there each and every day. It asks you, 'Are you going to be a wimp or are you going to be strong today. ”

    Peter also now runs a Sports Therapy Clinic in Carrigaline, Cork, Ireland.

    i know someone who was training for a charity cycle organised by the local pub .
    he got talking to a fella in a jeep one day when he just finished cycling
    he proceeded to tell this man all about the big miles he was putting in sometimes up to 50 miles a day
    he then asked " do you do any cycling yourself"

    great stories! I bet those lads wouldn't have taken any offence to the questions though; and wouldn't knock your own personal achievements?.....
