Coronation Street star Colson Smith has been praised by his fans after he shared his latest impressive achievement. The actor, who is known for playing Craig Tinker in the ITV soap, took his lockdown running hobby to the next level as he took part in the Heaton Park Half Marathon.
Last month, Colson was flooded with good luck messages as he announced what appeared to be his biggest challenge since starting his fitness journey. The soap star shocked fans when he revealed his epic 10 stone weight loss for the first time in 2020. Colson completely overhauled his lifestyle and documented his journey in his own YouTube film, Bored Of Being the Fat Kid.
When lockdown hit, and the cast and crew suspended filming at the Salford-based set, Colson packed up and went back to his family. It was then, he previously told the Manchester Evening News, that he chose to put himself first after spending so long being a self-confessed "people pleaser''.
