The Run is a fascinating creature in his natural habitat (2 stage cavern), though he has recently been sighted in other areas.

The Run has a rather annoying habit of obtaining Fruit of the Doom in Team17 matches, while eager opponents (and Parker) are stuck with no less than 3 handguns, 2 mortars, 3 moles, and enough girders to build a small unstable suspension bridge.

On the rare chance that the Run is caught out and severly wounded, he will immediatly switch to "Operation Hide the Fuck Away".

In 2006 the Run had a brief affair with Lady Luck, which goes some way to explaining his numerous supercluster aquisitions. They went their seperate ways soon after however, with Lady Luck stating things were "like a banana, only rounder". Many were quick to point to the Run's frequent fruit gathering in Team17 games and draw comparisons between the two events.

The Run has in his posession 6 large wooden spoons "all the better to stir-shit with".

The Run is also never seen in any colour other than Red. Red Run backwards spells out Nurder, often mis-read as Murder. This could be a co-incidence, although it is highly unlikely as his full name is RunForYourLife.

In the beginning of 2007, the Run invented the scheme [[hysteria]], possibly out of frustration with being labeled as a fruit-hermit.

The Run's natural life cycle is due to end in 2013, possibly of a fruit related overdose. A prophecy fortells of a conversation ending in "If he gets another banana I'm going to shove it so far up his...". Unfortunately the ending to this piece has been lost in time (and possibly a fruit salad).

(Up to People)

After spending a year playing WA offline because he didn't know he had to double-click the yellow text to get into WormNET, the Run finally skulked into the Worms community sometime in 2001, and refused to go away for the best part of a decade.

In that time the Run has:

  • Started a website to aggregate ideas for the game (now hosted on this wiki; see "Worms Unlimited")
  • Started a patronisingly simple tech support website for the game [1]
  • Started a contest website for amusing shots [2]
  • Invented numerous schemes, of which only Hysteria generated any degree of popularity
