A WORCESTER man has completed the gruelling challenge of more than 400 burpees to raise money for Worcester City Boxing Amateur Club.

James Grant raised £1,250 for the club after he recently completed 443 burpees, the length of one mile, at Nunnery Wood High School’s athletic track in one hour and 20 minutes.

The challenge was backed by the Guinness Book Of Records and set a new world record.
