Y-front runner ends epic fundraiser

A man who finished an unusual charity fund-raiser in the Isle of Man at the weekend says he's footsore - but very satisfied.

 

24-year old William Graydon set himself the challenge of running 200 miles in memory of Robin Gibb.

 

William's father Ken was Robin's manager and close friend and as a youngster he grew up around the former Bee Gee, who died last year from cancer.  

 

Robin's Run 200 was completed as a series of marathons in the UK, and at the weekend William ran from hospice to Peel and back in the trademark pink Y-fronts which have turned heads throughout the campaign.

 

Around £10,000 has been raised - the money to be donated to Coming Home, a charity for service personnel, the Royal Marsden Hospital in London and Rebecca House children's hospice:
