Steve Sidwell will take 26.2 miles from the capital next month to raise funds for the British Heart Foundation. The former Chelsea and Fulham midfielder says that there are three personal reasons behind his charitable choice
Steve Sidwell appeared on a forty -year -old birthday and refused to drink a drink because he had to be early in the long run. “He was a social calendar killer.”
But if the former Chelsea and Fulham midfielder crosses the finish line in the London Marathon next month in less than four hours and increases awareness of the British Heart Foundation, then refraining from having sex and warning deserves all this trouble.
“You have to remember what you do for him,” says Sidwell. “For some, it is something a bucket, but for many people, it comes to collecting money and awareness of a charity.”
The selection of Sidwell for a good reason comes to three personal factors. His father suffered a heart attack when he was far from a before the season as a player. He was next to Glenn Hodel when the former England director suffered a heart attack while in a TV studio seven years ago. The smallest son of Cydwail, Lenny, was diagnosed with a rare condition that requires regular checks. “He may need surgery below the line,” he says.

The same, it seems that Sidwell has a desire to prove something for himself.
“Running was a player as a player,” he says, but his career was reduced in 2018 due to a broken back injury that required two surgeries.
The way of recovery was long. Once he was retired, the completion of a marathon was in his list of wishes, but it took six years to feel he was physically capable. He was spending a lot of time riding, but after watching the London Marathon last year he got his coaches. “Last April, I did one kilometer on the walking device and I built it from there.”
The progress was slow, but it is now about to reach 20 miles in the long run, following a plan created by a physiological scientist who worked with it as a player, and ran while strengthening confidence for one hour in the Brighton Marathon in early March. “It was very useful from the beginning, as many people are used to there, they turned a blind eye, and they dive around people.”
However, he knows that there is nothing that he can prepare for Adrenaline running through hundreds of thousands of thousands across the capital on April 28. “I hope I have any bad hiccups.” “I imagine that there will be along the way, but I hope that it will not prevent me in my paths.”
There is still a competitive line inside, but it will not be operated by trying to overcome other former soccer players – including John Terry and Jack Wilsheer. “As long as the diver in the depths of the seas in a suit does not go beyond me, I will be happy with that.”
Sidwell misses “strange things” from football. He adds: “Pain and pain, and return home from matches at 1 am or 2 am, and stadiums.” But watching it as a summary feels that the character is absorbed.
“Looking at the game now, as it is over, I may not miss it a lot,” he says. “He has become somewhat sterilized, he is very trained, the character is missing, not organic.
“How many times do you see players who have a shot outside the box? There is an element that stopped it.”
