Midlands endurance athlete Paddy Doyle marched to his 200th milestone career strength speed stamina record, the challenge was to complete 26 ardeous miles over cross country whilst carrying a 60 lb back pack. The former para had to navigate over hills, through streams and muddy footpaths. He was assisted by pacers from Stamina's boxing self defence gym from Birmingham, and members of 1st and 2 nd Battalion Parachute Regiment. His finishing time was 7hrs 51 mins. Since then he has also achieved two more fitness endurance records bringing his total of records / challenges since 31 July 2010 to 22.
Doyle has eight more physical fitness feats to go before he beats the current record of 29 records in a calender year. However the major difference from the previous title of 29 records, is that Doyle is achieving more tougher feats and is also beating other record holders.
