Mr Knight began his running challenge on Sunday, December 6, and set a modest target of £100. But just 11 days into his daily 5k’s and Mr Knight had already reached almost £2,000.
Now, the amount is up to £2,555, and has had 153 supporters helping to fundraise for the Royal Papworth Hospital Charity, based in Cambridgeshire.
Mr Knight added: “I’m so overwhelmed by the support of family, friends, and even strangers, as we’ve managed to get to this target. And I’m not planning on stopping yet either.
“So many friends and family members have joined me on my daily runs, which are usually along Gorleston cliffs, to support us.
