Salford teacher running 45 marathons in full animal costumes for Chester Zoo
A teaching assistant from Salford who raised thousands of pounds for charity after running coast to coast across Africa has found a new challenge to keep him busy during lockdown.
Brendan Rendall is running a half marathon every day in June - and a full marathon every day in July.
In total, he'll clock up 1204 miles.
But if that wasn't hard enough - he's running in a variety of animal costumes:
Brendan can be seen running every day all around Salford and Manchester.
He says the animal costumes get a big reaction from passers by.
Brendan is raising money for Chester Zoo - which suffered a major financial hit during lockdown.
Brendan says it was a cause very close to his heart:
Brendan will finish his marathon effort on August the 1st with a final run from Salford Quays to Chester Zoo - a journey of around 35 miles.
