Mark Rogerson is someone who is resilient through and through.
He suddenly lost his sight just after he turned 30 - a life changing diagnosis that led to him grieving the life he once had.
Mark has adapted though and started running after he lost his sight - to raise money for the charity that suported him - the Royal National Institute Of Blind People (RNIB).
Since then he has ran seven marathons - he’s just completed the London one for the fourth time and has also ran marathons in Chicago , Berlin & New York.
Now, he’s aiming to be one of the first runners with sight loss to complete all six major world marathons in partnership with a guide runner.
So far Mark has raised £25,000 for the RNIB - but he wants to raise more - listen to how he plans to do so!
