Picture this, you wake up every single morning and run a marathon, 26.2 miles, which pushes people to their absolute limits, but what if I told you that someone was doing this every single day for a full year?
I introduce to you Gary McKee, or as he is more commonly known, the Marathon Man. The 53-year-old from Cleator Moor in Cumbria is aiming to raise £1m for charities Macmillan Cancer and Hospice at Home West Cumbria and will have run more than 9,500 miles by the end of the year.
Earlier on in the year I recorded an audio piece with Gary, and it's available to listen to here below on SoundCloud, (picture taken by Elwyn Evans):
