5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

In 2007, Steve Way was an overweight smoker. Now at 40 years-old, he is about to represent England in the Commonwealth Games marathon. Steve said: "If you told me 7 years ago that at 40, I would be representing England in the marathon at the Commonwealth Games... I'd have given you a slap and told you to stop being so stupid." This clip is originally from 5 live Commonwealth Games Breakfast 27th July 2014.
