MARM is heading on a train to Wolverhampton on a Saturday to complete the point to point Birmingham Black Country Half Marathon. The canal towpath awaits – but TWO horrendous accidents lie in wait…
Will MARM finish? Or could this be the end of 5 in 4?
MARM Mugs available online – search “MARM Mugs” on Vinted or Ebay.
But hurry!! They are going like hot mugs!!

  1. What a beautiful scenic race 😂😂
    Would have been much nicer running in the opposite direction towards South Staffordshire and Brewood and ignoring the race directions 👍🤣

  2. Good effort, Tim! Hope the body isn't too sore after your tumble? Not sure I'll be adding this to the to-do list any time soon. Good luck for the double header this weekend!

  3. Cheers MARM, as entertaining as ever👍. Glad to see only your pride was dented with the two mishaps BUT ..Thank you, thank you, Dankeschön for reminding why I left W'ton at the age of 16, living in Austria is just a tad better .. PS Apologies in advance, Classic joke .."White van man to pedestrian: S'cuse me mate does yow now if there's a B & Q in Wolverhampton? Pedestrian: Sorry mate oi don't, but I nows theres 2 D's in Dudley" 😃

  4. Leakage comes with age Tim, just get used to that faint whiff. Good luck with the double header and well done for making it out of Wolverhampton with your Speed 4’s still on your feet!

  5. I like how the video starts with Peer Gynt in the background, that's quality. I think this has been the most dangerous half you've done so far. Wolverhampton, that is. Lots of places to meet the maker, intentionally or otherwise. Some dodgy bridges. Some muddy paths. The wild wee section was comedy gold. Glad to see you've finished the race in one piece. Looking forward to loft conversion updates 🙂

  6. Could the stain have been disguised by splashing water on the non stained parts? Or adjusting the shorts left and right and staining some more? As it turned out the rain was your friend.

  7. wild wee really did a number on you that time huh Marm? 🤣Another quality video although the narrow canal start looked pretty brutal, one sharp elbow and someone would be in the water! And that fall, christ! 😬 amazing how you just got up and carried on, straight face an all! We have a new version of Korea/Career for you and it's Harter Fell / Heart of Hell (as in the Lake District hill that is constantly wrong on subtitles) 🤣 If you could give it a go that would be epic. Good luck this weekend for your double adventure. 👌🏻

  8. You was doing so well until you well down like a sack of spuds (on your arse) and first words were “did you capture it”. It was me who asked how you was at the end 🤭, I did ask as I went past too. Done well mate to be filming and getting that time.

  9. Brilliant! Watching your videos continues to be the most fun you can have on a WFH day 😆 I once travelled through Wolvo by canal boat. Dead cats & condoms & much time spent stopped to untangle weed from the propellors, whilst fearing for our lives. Can recommend Dudley parkrun tho – tow path + athletics running track combo & full English breakfasts available locally for under a fiver. Compton Verney will deffo be a different vibe & the loos are worth the wait 😆

  10. I was there, started much later than you though(not elite). There were urinals for the men just next to the portaloo's…just saying. Love your video's.

  11. Just picked this up Marm.
    Unusual place to hold a race alongside a canal lol. Great effort tho
    I went to Wolverhampton in 1986 but it was closed lol
    Keep rm coming Marm
    Well done

  12. I think the best answer here to disguise your incontinence would have been to jump in the canal and claimed it was a fall.
    You’d have looked slightly less ridiculous on the start line and could have enjoyed all the sympathy sure to come your way
