As we run along the banks of the River Kelvin, Angus Farquhar is taking it easy, noting the way his foot rolls over the ground and being careful not to push too hard. In the last year he has run about 1500 miles, gaining new best times in two out of the three marathons he completed, his obsession even taking him to India, where he ran the Auroville marathon through cyclone-damaged temperate forest. The miles, though, have taken their toll and, early this spring, on a run, he noticed what he thought was a pebble in his shoe. He stopped, tried to shake it out and discovered that what he thought was a pebble was inside his flesh. His foot, as he says, was "crock".

• Cardinals Are Warned Over Dangers to the Faith Dean Reminds Conclave of 'Absolute Truth'

CARDINAL Joseph Ratzinger, considered a top contender to be the next Pope, lashed out yesterday at what he called threats to the fundamental truths of the Roman Catholic Church as he sought to set the tone of the conclave to elect a successor to Pope John Paul II.
