A truck driver is poised to compete in three long distance events in 2014 to raise money for charity, despite having only taken up running as a new year’s resolution.

Martin Parkes, a driver for Palletways member, Mitchells of Mansfield, has just completed the first leg of his gruelling challenge, completing the 26.2 mile London Marathon in in 5 hrs: 47 mins and 22 secs.

To complete his hat-trick of distance runs, Martin plans to run both the Bupa Great North Run and the Robin Hood Half Marathon in September and hopes to raise over £1,000 for Help for Heroes: “I started running just to keep fit and healthy but it has quickly turned into my new passion. I wanted a challenge to aim for and felt that doing these three runs for charity would be a great motivation to keep it up and raise money for an incredibly worthy cause”.

While he has only just started his running odyssey, Martin is already planning on entering more marathons next year.
