Rock star Pete Doherty has been spotted running in Marlborough, with his former landlord Ralph Bernard.

Mr. Bernard is a marathon runner and knocked on Doherty's door and asked him to go for a run.

While Doherty is reportedly out of shape, he's found running is a good way to shed weight that he gained in rehab.

Doherty has also reportedly started doing press-ups and begun meditating to help improve his health.

It has also been suggested that he may be training to run the London marathon. When questioned, a spokesperson for Doherty said, "There is some truth to this - you never know what could happen."

However, the running may just be a way to counter his other new addiction, mince pies.

He reportedly said: "It is going to be mince pies for me this Christmas. I have got a massive order on the way."

Got to agree with you again Swindon. But in answer to your question, nope don't think he can!
So the guy goes running and suddenly that means he's going to do the marathon!
Jesus! I go to the gym most weeks... Surely that must mean I'm going to aswell then?!

Careful everyone! You'll have the press on your case if you are spotted running! What an absolute CRAP story!
But fair play to the man if he is going to do it. Don't really think the world needs to know about it though.
