Charity Fundraiser Completes Paris Marathon in Ski Boots

J2SkiNews posted 24-Apr



Marathon-running fundraiser Mike Humphreys of Hedon in Yorkshire has completed the Paris Marathon running in a pair of ski boots.

Mike, who is a personal trainer, took only six hours and 50 minutes to complete the race in what he described as "probably the toughest thing I've ever done".

It's just the latest in a long list of fundraising challenges including cycling from Hull to Val Thorens on a Raleigh Chopper bike.

Mike is raising funds and awareness for the fight against motor neurone disease, which he lost one good friend to in 2013 and now has a second friend diagnosed with the condition.

Mike's GoFundMe has raised more than £33,000, surpassing his £30,000 goal.
