The older, funnier, more handsome brother arrives shortly from that suburb of Cape Town known as Perth. 2018 is his year to regain fitness (not very aspirational as, at his peak, he could barely lift 2 six packs) but admirable none the less.
The goal is to run the Two Oceans Half Marathon this year on the 31st March- Yikes.
In order to ensure his survival I have offered to chaperone him around the route on the day – on foot I must add. Needless to say I’ve been putting in some hours plodding along the Prom in Seapoint to avoid embarrassment. If I passed you along the way and failed to greet you, be assured it was purely due to a lack of oxygen and nothing personal. Its unlikely you would have recognised me unless you were wearing blue tinted specs as my countenance during these endeavours makes an oompa loompa jealous.
A dear friend and foodie who is a regular customer is very involved with kidney transplants in Cape Town and as a result I have decided to use the race to support the Cape Kidney Association. The older brother is partial to wine and these services might come in handy in the future. Please support us and make a donation (if this post made you smile you really should) to a very worthwhile cause.
Regards and thank you in advance.
