“Mental health is a big part of why I take on these challenges. They always take me outdoors, into natural environments, which has been a key motivator for me. While the New York Marathon will be my first challenge in an urban landscape, I have been lucky to do some of my training in some amazing places including Iceland, Norway, and across the US.”
-Jimmy Carroll
Jimmy, who has tackled endurance challenges like the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Row and founding the Monaco bike ride, will run the New York Marathon on 3rd November in support of Pelorus Foundation. Despite a recent spinal deterioration diagnosis and only signing up to run the marathon last month, Jimmy is determined to complete the 26.2-mile race.
