A FORMER Made In Chelsea star is hoping to raise £1 million for charity by running 76 marathons, in 76 cities, in 76 days.
Ultra-athlete Josh Patterson set off on his toughest challenge yet on February 27 and will be visiting every city across the UK during his journey, including Plymouth.
Josh took on marathon 57 in Bath, before number 58 in Wells. Plymouth is set to be his 59th marathon, so he is due to be here today. All the money generated by his challenge will go to the suicide prevention charity, Samaritans.
Josh hopes his efforts will raise awareness about mental health and help to save lives. Having battled with mental health since his teenage years, and with suicide being the leading cause of death for men under the age of 50, he has launched ‘Run 4 1 Million’ to demonstrate that anything is possible if you set your mind and body to it.
