A Bideford man has completed a 100 mile, 34 hour hike along the Tarka Trail for Over and Above.
Mark Edwards took on the challenge, raising £1,500 for the charity.
Mark walked non-stop for 34 hours, finishing to a welcome crowd of Bideford Quay in the sunshine.
He said: “As I walked across the other side of the river I heard them cheering - and there they all were stood waiting for me to finish. It was magical.
“It was such an amazing experience and I’m so grateful to everyone who supported me.”
