Members of Daddies Escape Running Club have completed a mammoth challenge in aid of the Running Bee Foundation and the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital.

The group of fitness fanatics completed 72 separate 10km runs in July - equating to two each day for 21 days and three a day for 10 days.

We spoke to club captain Liam Mellon and club member Peter Gough about the challenge.

The club has so far raised £1,110 to be split 50/50 between the two charities.
