Not All Heroes Wear Capes. Some Drink Wine.

There is a man named Tom Gilbey who ran the London Marathon to raise money for the Sobell House Hospice Charity in Oxfordshire in honor of his mom. How does one raise money running the London Marathon you ask? Gilbey did it by drinking wine while he ran. He drank 25 wines along the 26.2 miles with a glass of champagne waiting for him at the finish line. Turns out, I can run a marathon too! I just need 25 glasses of wine and a glass of bubbly at the end for motivation. And I can promise you, that is the only way you will ever catch me running 26.2 miles.

It'd take a lot more than that to get me to run at all. But this is a very charming story, so be sure to read it all (it's fairly brief).
