Doyle set to move one step closer to historic world record milestone
Provided he beats the Guinness World Record of 6 hr 28 min, the Balsall Common athlete will tackle his 350th on December 6 when he attempts a half-marathon speed march carrying a 40lb backpack.
The milestone will see him finish at the Royal British Legion Club in Berkswell, with the former paratrooper then taking on a strength record in front of his loyal supporters.
