    Gary McKee ran 365 marathons in as many days to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support and Hospice at Home West Cumbria.
    Gary McKee,53,from Cleator Moor in Cumbria raised his arms in victory and was cheered by a crowd of supporters as he completed his 365th marathon of the year on New Year's Eve.As of 4 pm on Saturday,he had raised more than £ 890,000 for the charities Macmillan Cancer Support and Hospice at Home West Cumbria,just shy of (缺少) his £1 million fundraising target.The father of three has gone through 22 pairs of sports shoes and has run 9,563 miles in rain,snow and sunshine to raise money for the charities.
    "The support has been amazing and it always is and the West Cumbrians get behind us,but cancer affects everybody so it isn't just a West Cumbrian thing,it's a national thing," said Gary. "I just hope that people do get behind us and we do raise those million pounds." Gary has not only raised money for two fantastic charities,but he has also sprinkled magic on the local community and brought people together to support him with the challenge.
    Chris Young,29,ran 90 marathons with Mr.McKee. "Gary set a good example to me this year when I began running frequently with him and has given me both physical and mental resilience (適應(yīng)力) that I don't know if I would have ever discovered in myself in a million years.I know I don't just speak for myself on that front as he has inspired not just me or the few,but the entire local community and beyond," said Chris, "This challenge has raised a great amount of money for two fantastic charities,but the impact Gary has provided to the community and people around him is immeasurable.A lot of people's lives will be much better off thanks to Gary's efforts,mine included."
