News - Gavin Praises Inspirational Mark Cooper

Mark Cooper

Gavin had the pleasure of catching up with Edinburgh's own 'Marathon Man'Mark Cooper recently.

Mark had just finished a 1,300-mile ultra-endurance run through Holland, Belgium, France and Spain over an eight week period.

Mark completed an incredible 50 marathons in just 56 days and in the process raised over £25,000 for the Edinburgh Headway Group.

Gavin said: -

"Mark has done an amazing job here and is a truly inspirational man. He has raised a lot of money for an excellent charity, the Edinburgh Headway Group. That money will be put to very good use."
