He started the challenge last month and has now 77 football grounds, running more than 2,000 miles and raising almost £5,000 for Mind and Super Josh charities.
He said: “I am believed to be the first person to attempt this and I am expecting this challenge to take around six months in total.
“Tomorrow I will arrive in Bradford and then onto Leeds.”
