Nick Butter is a British endurance athlete, adventurer, and author, renowned for being the first person to run a marathon in every country in the world. Over 674 days, he completed 196 marathons across all UN-recognised nations, a feat documented in his bestselling book, Running the World.
Inspired by a friend battling prostate cancer, Butter's journey was not only a personal challenge but also a mission to raise awareness and funds for Prostate Cancer UK. His experiences during this global expedition led him to establish The 196 Foundation, a non-profit organization that supports various causes worldwide through a unique democratic donation model.
Beyond his world-record achievement, Butter has undertaken other significant endurance challenges, including running 100 marathons in 100 days across Italy and circumnavigating Britain on foot, covering over 5,250 miles. He also founded Run Weekends, offering trail running retreats worldwide.
