"Brutally dumped by her girlfriend Ally is homeless friendless and jobless... but at least
she has Malcolm. Wounded and betrayed Ally has made off with the one thing she thinks might
soothe the pain: Emily's cat. After a long train journey she arrives home to her Dad in
Sheffield ready to fold herself up in her duvet and remain on the sofa for the foreseeable.
Her dad has other ideas. A phone call later Ally is on a 'date' with her first ever beard and
friend of old Jeremy. He too is broken-hearted and living at home again. In an inspired effort
to hold each other up the pair decide to revenge-run a half marathon in a bid to impress their
exes with their commitment and athleticism. Given neither of them can run they enlist the
support of athletic not to mention beautiful Jo. But will she have them running for the
hills... or will their ridiculous plan pay off...?"--Publisher.
