But it's been unbelievable, one of the most painful and joyous experiences I've ever had." He then jokingly asked the crowd: "Is there anyone here who can replace a knee?" The former model went on to confess that he was on “on so many painkillers I’d keel over if I had a pint", reports The Mirror.And Vernon had a further, grim health update following the mega run, revealing that both his big toenails were falling off.
