Cumbria 'Marathon Man' Gary McKee completes 365th fundraiser of 2022

A Cumbria fundraiser extraordinaire has completed his resolution of running a marathon for every day of 2022, raising almost £1 million for charities across the UK.

53-year-old Gary McKee from Cleator Moor this afternoon raised his arms in victory as he was cheered on by a crowd of supporters while completing his 365th marathon of the year.

As of 4pm today, he had successfully raised in excess of £890,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support, as well as Hospice at Home West Cumbria - narrowly short of his £1 million target for 2022.
