Blind Dave 777 Countdown..............................100 Days To GoSICK OF BEING SICK 29-12-2007 There are now just 100 days to go before West Brom’s Blind Dave Heeley attempts to become the first disabled runner to complete seven marathons in seven days on seven continents. But as the countdown begins, our hero is on his sick bed. “I’ve been laid up in bed all over the Christmas period” he sniffled. “That’s the trouble with having two school-age kids. They pick up all these bugs and bring ‘em home. “I’ve had a bad chest, bad head, you name it, but hopefully I’m on the mend now. Dave’s been unable to train for a week, but is hopeful of getting out with his marathon partner Mad Mac tomorrow as the big day looms ever closer.
