Paddy McGuinness Prepares for Charity Cycle Challenge

Paddy McGuinness, 51, is preparing for a 300-mile cycling challenge from Wrexham to Glasgow for BBC Children In Need, with six-time Olympic champion Sir Chris Hoy pushing him to his limits during training. McGuinness described Hoy as 'outstanding' and credited him with exceptional advice that has been instrumental in his preparation. The charity cycle is particularly meaningful to McGuinness due to his encounters with beneficiaries, notably a young girl named Grace who overcame cancer. Hoy, recently diagnosed with terminal cancer, emphasized the importance of focusing on the positives and cherishing each day. The fundraising effort aims to highlight the work done by Children In Need and support those facing challenges similar to those McGuinness has witnessed. The televised Children in Need appeal coincides with McGuinness's completion of the ride on Friday at 19:00 GMT on BBC One.
