WATCH: Daddies complete mammoth challenge for charity

Daddies Escape Running Club completed a 54 mile run from Manchester to Blackpool in aid of the Running Bee Foundation.

The fitness fanatics set off from Manchester at 11pm on Friday night and were faced with awful conditions along the way.

The eight runners were led by two bikers and trailed by an ambulance.

We met them in Blackpool and spoke to them about the challenge.
