British Forest Gump ran from Vancouver to Buenos Aires
Jamie Ramsey is the real life Forest Gump. The British man ran the 7,000 miles from Vancouver, Canada to Buenos Aires, Argentina. The best part? He did it all for a good charity.
“This challenge was a unique opportunity to explore the world and do something to help three charities that mean a lot to me – CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), WaterAid and MacMillan Cancer Support,” Ramsey said. “It has certainly been an experience, but one I have absolutely loved. A sincere thank you to all those who have helped me succeed both during the expedition and back at home.”
He started his run in August of 2014 and since then, has gone through 17 pairs of shoes as he crossed 14 countries. He finally got some rest yesterday.
