A successful business man will be running 11 marathons in 100 days to make sure children in poverty can open a present on Christmas day.
James Winters, from Bootle, is running 500 kilometers in 100 days to make sure disadvantaged kids have a present to open at Christmas. The owner of the electrical firm, M-Tech, will run five kilometres a day until Christmas Eve, eventually clocking up the equivalent of more than 11 marathons.
James is running to raise money for his SMILE (Support Mission in Liverpool Education) Project, which works with kids aged five to 11 in low-income areas. The project was launched in conjunction with Big Trust in 2016, as well as Football for Change (FFC), a social mobility charity started by football superstars last year.
