Description

Graham Wilson retired from the Police and is now on a mission to walk 120 marathons in 120 days (along with his dog, Tilly). The 120 marathons will cover 8 countries, 3 isles and cover a distance of 3180 miles - the equivalent of walking from Leeds to New York City.

• Adventure plans just grow once you have the kernel of an idea
• Fundraising - think of a massive number and go for it. Spurred on by the unknown element of it
• We know that at some point in the 120 days things will go wrong - it's about living with that and accepting it
