“Neither of us have run a marathon before but we’ve bitten the bullet and said if we’re going to do one, we might as well do seven!
“Now we’ve started the training we’ve realised what a mammoth task it’s going to be.”
Mr Pullinger added the many miles of training logged so far had led to a newfound love of running.
He said: “I’ve always been sporty but before lockdown I had not really been a runner as such.
“I’ve never really been someone who thought ‘long distance running is for me’ but I’ve been getting a real buzz from it actually – I’ve really enjoyed it, surprisingly so.”
