**UPDATE: 14/10/2026**
After absolutely smashing his Castle 2 Castle Ultra Marathon back in July, Marcus is taking on another challenge this October!
He’d really appreciate any additional support he can raise for We Are Beams Charity. Every donation, like, share and kind message helps spur him on through these intense physical challenges, knowing that he’s making a real difference to disabled children and their families.
Thank you so much for supporting Marcus and Beams! ❤️

On Saturday 25 July, I will be taking on the Rat Race Castle to Castle 100, a demanding 100 mile ultra marathon from Edinburgh Castle to Glamis Castle.
Organised by Rat Race, this challenge is far more than a standard race. Covering mixed terrain including trails, roads and countryside routes, it is designed to test both physical endurance and mental strength over a continuous 100 mile distance.
I have convinced two friends to sign up alongside me, but this is very much an individual challenge, and completing it will be a huge personal achievement.
I am taking part to raise funds for We Are Beams, a charity that provides vital support to disabled children and their families. Their work has a meaningful impact on everyday lives, and I am proud to support them.
I would love to raise at least £500. Every donation, whatever the amount, will help ensure Beams can continue delivering essential services and opportunities for the families who rely on them.
Thank you for your support. It will make a real difference and help keep me going every mile of the journey.
