A DETERMINED man is set to take on 10 ultramarathons in 10 days for charity, before finishing off his mammoth challenge by participating in the Great North Run.

- OWEN YOUNGER

Greg Watson, 42, completed seven marathons in just one week last year, but he wanted to take things to a whole new level this time around.

Greg, who only started running in 2019 to relieve stress, is going from his home town of Newbury in Berkshire to Newcastle, raising money for two causes very close to his heart, Alzheimer's Research UK and Sophie's Journey.
