Luke works as the Under 10 Lead Academy Coach at Manchester City’s Academy.
Having worked for the club for two and a half years, as well as being a life-long Leeds United fan, being originally from Leeds, it was important to Luke to support and involved both clubs and communities through his challenge.
Starting at Elland Road in Leeds on Saturday December 3, Luke ran across Leeds, past Headingley stadium, through Horsforth, towards Bradford, finishing past Brighouse near the M62.
Luke then continued across Saddleworth Moors, towards Old Trafford before looping back round to the Etihad Stadium, finishing at the City Football Academy where he was met by his Under 10 team on Sunday, December 4.
The money in Manchester goes towards Manchester City’s Christmas campaign that supports City in the Community.
