He also plans to link up with other runners all over the world to form a global community.
“My goal is to raise £250,000 and loads of awareness for prostate cancer. Inspire young people to live their dream and make a difference,” said Nick, “I believe we all have a chance to leave the world better than we found it, and this is my way of making a mark. Besides from running, I will use my love of photography to capture the trip and share my story.”
Nick plans to make his way around the globe, spending an average of just 60 hours in each country, documenting everything from race prep, the people I meet, and the culture he experiences as he goes. He estimates the trip will cost about £120,000 to organise and is currently fund raising for it.
Nick says he met a man in his early 50s called Kevin while running the Marathon Des Sables out in the Sahara Desert last year who inspired him to undertake his epic challenge.
“The week that I was with him in the desert, that was the date the doctors had given him as the date he was due to die. He’s already surpassed that and is still alive and doing very well,” said Nick, who works as a motivational speaker and has already completed over 300 marathons around the world.
