Ex-banker in run around Britain hits halfway point
A retired banker from Devon who is hoping to become the first man over the age of 60 to run the entire coastline of Britain is halfway through his challenge.
Steve James, 65, from Topsham, completed his 100th day in a row of running, midway through his goal to run 200 marathons in 200 days.
Monitored by the University of Exeter, he runs about six hours a day in an anticlockwise direction around the coast.
Mr James said: "There have been points where I didn't know if I'd make it, but I've proved to myself I'm capable of pushing beyond my limits, both physical and mental."
