Ken Taylor of Rossendale Harriers has completed the BGR in 22 hours 18 minutes.

You may be thinking, good effort, but hardly worth reporting. Ken is 71!

Witnessed Ken finish last night. A super achievement

Got a good photo of Ken (71) and Tobias (19) who also completed the round on the same day.

Doubly impressive when you think what he's been through

Bloody hell. I'm in awe of people like that. Especially as I'm on the brink of giving up running due to dodgy knee. How do people push through that??

Yep. Every time I moan about my dodgy shoulder/hip/etc as an excuse for being sub-punterish at pretty much anything, I try to think about what Andy Parkin has achieved post accident and Joss Naylor who is no stranger to skeletal problems himself, not to mention Nicky Spink's own health travails. General breaking out of "I'm not worthy" type genuflecting is in order.
