Simeon Hunter was born in Dunfermline, Scotland. Birth date June 14th 1975. He shares his birthday with none other than Che Guevara & the infamous "Boy George". His most famous achievement to date is running the ING New York City Marathon 2004 in aid of Cancer Research UK. His finishing time was 4:36:45.

Simeon is proud of his "unusual" christian name being one of the 12 tribes of Israel. The text of Genesis (29:33) argues that the name of Simeon refers to Leah's belief that God had heard that she was hated by Jacob, in the sense of not being as favoured as Rachel. However Simeon (Symeon - שִׁמְעוֹן )may have gained the name of being "rebellious" after avenging the rape of his sister Dinah.

Simeon therefore displays שִׁמְעוֹן in bold black script on his left forearm to show he is proud of his origins.
