January 1, 20232 yr He did raise over a million pounds for 2 charities while doing it. but that is absolutely fucking nuts. ran a marathon, every freaking day this year. No injuries, never got sick enough to not run. He went through new shoes every 2 weeks holy shit for real. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-cumbria-64134196 Quote A man who vowed to complete a marathon on every day of 2022 has hit his £1m target after completing his final run. Gary McKee, from Cleator Moor, in Cumbria, began his challenge on 1 January, with donations to be shared between Macmillan Cancer Support and West Cumbria Hospice at Home. The father-of-three often ran his 26.2-mile (42km) route before starting work at the Sellafield nuclear site. As he crossed the finish line, he thanked the "fantastic" reception. And he later revealed in a tweet that he had reached his £1m goal in aid of charities. Cheered on by crowds, he started his latest challenge at 08:30 GMT and finished at about 14:00 GMT in front of a fireworks display. Mr McKee has gone through more than 20 pairs of trainers, run more than 9,500 miles (15,300km) and finished his final marathon at about 14:00. Speaking afterwards, he said: "The streets were lined. It was raining, but everybody was out clapping and shouting.
