Buster Martin To Become Oldest Man To Run London Marathon |Sky News|Home

Buster Martin, Britain’s oldest worker, is set to break another record by competing in this year’s London Marathon at the age of 101.

And it will be cigarettes and a pint of bitter rather than health drinks and energy bars driving the remarkable record-breaker on.

His aim is to complete the 26-mile route in about 14 hours, supported by colleagues from Pimlico Plumbers in South London where he works three days a week cleaning vans.

Buster is running for the Rhys Daniels Trust - a charity which supports families with seriously ill children.
