Another great day Edgbaston Stadium for Ronβs March. π to all the walkers, Nick Owen, Jim Rosenthal and Tim Munton π
Thanks so much for joining us and supporting Jim. It was really good to remember our old mate Bob Willis who fell victim to this horrible disease. A report on BBC Midland Today BBC News Midlands 6.30 BBC 1, Sky 956.
Bob Willis bowled a record 941 no-balls in Tests, making 20,702 extra yards of deliveries stump-to-stump. So we are going to run the Bristol 10k which between us amounts to a similar number of yards to raise money for The Bob Willis Fund
