Until January of this year Steve Hill was an unfit, twenty-a-day smoker who had no real interest in running. However, on New Year's Day all that changed. He decided to run a marathon to raise money for Zoe's Place which is a hospice, based in Liverpool, which cares for terminally ill babies.
Since that life changing day on 1st January 2011, Steve has not only been training to run one marathon but is actually intending to run 40 marathon's over 40 consecutive days, to celebrate his 40th birthday while raising funds for his chosen charity.
This morning, 16th May, Steve set out to complete his first marathon, cheered on by his family, friends and supporters. If all goes well steve will complete is 40 marathons on 24 June.
