nope... a marathon runner.
Well in fact to be fair he's a British marathoner I
do remember... certainly I clearly recall the epic '84 LA Olympics marathon won by the inimitable Carlos Lopes. I was transifxed by that race - quite probably it was one of the main influences that eventually saw me don some running shoes myself, and Spedding was clearly a major player in that mara... a relatively slow marathon I recall, but then Olympic marathons do tend to be that way I guess.
What's he doing these days? Still running?
