Tommy Fury is at it again, proving he’s not just about the boxing ring 🥊

After controversial moments in previous races, including a shove at the Great North Run and accusations during a triathlon, Fury has returned to the long-distance scene.

This past weekend, the 26-year-old took on the Wilmslow Half Marathon and didn’t just finish, he sprinted across the line, claiming a new personal best over 13.1 miles. Sporting a sleek black running vest and his signature sunglasses, Fury showed off both speed and determination, earning cheers (and a few raised eyebrows) from spectators.

Whether you love him or love to critique him, it’s clear Fury has found a new passion for running, and he’s sprinting into it with full force.
