Livingston assistant manager Neil Hastings was due to run the Edinburgh Marathon on Sunday with twin brother Mark.
But there’s a good reason why he has had to pull out – the Lions are facing St Johnstone in the final Premiership fixture of the season just as the runners will be weaving their way through the capital.
He’s a man of his word, however, and he tackled a 26-mile jaunt from Armadale to Leith last weekend and has raised over £1000 for Diabetes UK in the process, despite a possible broken bone in his foot.
