Two friends have completed six "brutal" ultramarathons in six days to raise money for charity.
Simon Pilkington, from Bristol, covered about 180 miles (289.6km) along with Rob Dowling, from West Sussex.
The men were raising money for the Oliver's Wish Foundation, set up after Mr Dowling's two-year-old son died in 2015 from Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC).
Mr Pilkington said the challenge had been "amazing, yet incredibly and brutally tough".
The men started with the London Marathon on 27 April – and spent the next five days running about 30 miles (48km) per day during a heatwave.
"The added heat was just something else. It absolutely sapped every part of our energy," said Mr Pilkington.
