Paul Guscin will be 41 at the time of the marathon and it will be his first!. Paul took up running about two years ago and aims to complete the marathon in under 3.5 hours! The race is on Sunday 4th October starting on the shores of Loch Ness and finishing in Inverness.

Paul is running to raise funds for Strummerville, Paul says “I am running the marathon to raise money for Strummerville because giving young adults access to music and instruments means they should have fun and become more rounded individuals as well.” We are right behind you Paul … “Also, The Clash were my education and for me running a marathon is definitely rock and roll and punk rock! The charity is a great tribute to Joe Strummer.”
