Back then Paul was planning his military retreat. Not on the battlefield, but a place of safety and sanctuary for both serving and ex- military to treat their mental health.
That planning has become reality and with his charity head-up.org.uk established he just needs to raise £3 Million to fund The Retreat.
To achieve this and to create awareness, Paul will be running around the coastline of the entire UK. A mere 5800 miles! Or 191 back to back Marathons or if you're a fitness watch wearer, 9, 176, 000 steps!!!
The run starts on March 1st 2022 in Liverpool and is due to finish back in Liverpool on October 4th 2022.
We caught up with Paul to wish him well and to make sure he was ready for this life changing challenge.
