A record breaker believes he has secured the world record for the fastest crossing of Iceland by foot.
It is the second time Jack Pitcher, 30, has broken a record, after he beat the best British time for running 2,684 miles (4,320km) across Australia in December 2024.
Pitcher, from Bracknell, Berkshire, was supported by a three-man team as he sought to raise money for the SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, and complete his latest challenge.
He used Iceland's Route 1 from 29 June before finishing on Monday afternoon, completing the 460-mile (740km) challenge in seven days, nine hours and four minutes.
Facing "four seasons in a day", he said the hilly, challenging terrain made it more difficult than his Australian adventure.
