<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A self-confessed adrenaline junkie is gearing up to participate in a 24-hour go-kart marathon to raise funds for soldiers' charity Help for Heroes.<\/p>\n
Howard Kayman told the Borehamwood and Elstree Times that seeing news about soldiers being wounded prompted him to undertake the challenge later this month.<\/p>\n
The 43-year-old estate agent, who has already raised £5,000 for the charity, has not put a cap on the amount of money he wants to generate from the endurance race, which will take place in Teeside.<\/p>\n
He added: "Every two hours I will need to stop to refuel but I won't leave the kart. I'll eat an energy gel to keep me going."<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, 22-year-old Chris Du'Mont recently pledged to show his support for British soldiers by raising funds for kayaking across the English Channel.<\/p>\n
He told the Coventry Telegraph that he hopes to raise more than £1,500 by undertaking the 23-mile voyage.<\/p>\n
