A chat with mythical Heathside Harrier Gavin Evans - writer, super-speedy veteran and all-round lovely man. On a mud-spattered pootle round Ally Pally and Highgate Wood, Paul and Rob grill Gavin on his adventures, injuries and - most importantly right now - marathon prep. Featuring destroying doughnuts, first aid in the field, and the relative merits of Prague and Milton Keynes.
