Mr T. Rex, a tour guide, ran 25k on Sat 3 April around Exmouth and Budleigh Salterton to raise money for the RNLI.

Starting at 9am, he completed the run in just 4 hours and 50 minutes.

Mr T. Rex said: "I'd completed a lot of training for the event and, on the day, it was ideal 'dino' running conditions - dry, not too windy and a perfect temperature.

"I was amazed at the amount of support I received on my run round, people hooting their car horns, stopping to make donations and have photos taken and so on.

"I was very pleased to have raised such a significant sum for Exmouth RNLI that far exceeded my expectations and I'd like to thank all those who contributed to help make my efforts so worthwhile."

He raised a total of £864.90.

His JustGiving page is still open for donations.
