I Lost EIGHT Stone & RAN A 100-MILE Ultramarathon In ONE Year! | Richard Wilcox British Army

Richard Wilcox served with the Staffordshire Regiment. After suffering with PTSD, Richard became seriously overweight, but during the first lockdown period in 2020, he decided to change his lifestyle. After watching videos of ultra running online, he was inspired to take up the sport and set about losing some of his 18 stone weight. He signed up for a 100 mile race and spent a year in intense training, losing eight stone in the process. Richard has now taken on 30 marathons in thirty days, to raise money for the mental health charity, Combat Stress. In total, Richard ran for 150 hours, covered more than 790 miles and climbed a total elevation of 61,582ft, equating to getting to the summit of Everest twice. So far his extraordinary efforts have raised just over £1,500 for Combat Stress.Thank you to Andrew Marshall for bringing Richard's story to our attention.
