Osy Waye

Vastly experienced marathon competitor, having completed 99 marathons across the globe in the last 18 years. Osy is already a member of the Seven Continents Club and will join the Marathon Grand Slam Club in April 2006 when he completes the North Pole Marathon. He also intends to make sure that his polar marathon will be his 100th marathon - a very significant milestone. Doing promotional runs in a polar bear outfit, Osy hopes to raise funds for a London-based education centre for children with cerebral palsy and for a soup kitchen that feeds those in need. A 56 year-old baptist church caretaker, his fundraising website is www.osy100.com.
