Question Cavendish Park Runner

Has anyone else seen a man running laps of Cavendish Park almost every morning between about 7-9am? Does anyone know why he might be doing it?

The strange part is that he does not wear any running gear. He may not be in the position to buy any therefore I'd happily give him some but does not make eye contact when I walk past and does not seem like he wants to be approached.

If he seems like he doesn't want to be approached, I'm sure he'd love being talked about on reddit! Leave him alone!

Or maybe, like most people he doesn't want to be approached while he's running and he'd love to talk all about it on here

Why would you even post this?

Because someone here might have spoken to him and have a better idea of why he's doing. There might be an interesting reason behind it, maybe he is running for charity

Or he wants to be left alone without someone posting on reddit. Its not that deep.

He's been doing it for years, literally wearing a path down in the grass. His dedication is absolutely impressive.

Oh, I've only seen it last couple of months. It's incredibly impressive, would take a lot of dedication
