Harry, 70, takes marathon in his stride

Ben Turner

AN APPLE, a banana, and a pear a day helped haul Harry the Harrier a long, long way at the London Marathon on Sunday – at the grand old age of 70.

Harry Newton has sworn by the recommended five-a-day fruit and veg for years and secured his best ever time in what was his ninth stab at the distance – proving experience counts.
