They ran from the main entrance of Stormont Estate  to the steps of Stormont Parliament, Belfast from 15th to 24th Aug 2013 16.5 times for 10 days (one lap is 1.6 miles). That is 262 miles and total elevation of 30,480 feet over the 10 days.

Their mission was to raise £50,000 for Cancer Focus from these 10 marathons and other planned events. Both men lost 20% of their body weight.

Harold and Peter have run over 600 marathons and raised over £5000,000 for Cancer Charities. Their marathons include North to South Pole and from Sahara Desert to Mount Everest.
