A young runner with Down's Syndrome says "80s rock music" encouraged him to run over 100km in just six days.
Joseph Adams, 21, ran 10k (6.2 miles) twice a day through Liege in Belgium, Luxembourg City, Heidelberg in Germany and Nice in France.
He also did the challenge in Bregenz in Austria, Zurich in Switzerland, Como in Italy and Monaco, before finishing it in his hometown of Altrincham, Greater Manchester.
Joseph, who didn't walk until he was nearly three, had never run more than 2k (1.24 miles) before starting the feat on August 27 in Amsterdam.

00:00It's absolutely outstanding. The difference it's going to make to the local community is absolutely unbelievable.
00:06He's going to change lives.
00:07When Joseph was born, he was in special care for three weeks.
00:19It's not about somebody being able to do anything.
00:21It's about taking that concept of exploring someone's potential,
00:24getting them to take on a challenge.
00:27And whether they achieve it or not, that's not the point.
00:29The point is, you find out someone's potential when you don't place limits on them.
00:33I just now look at Joseph Adams and think, there's my motivation.
01:00I know we can, because we can show the same levels of determination, focus, and energy and ambition as he has done.
01:09Hi Joseph, it's Jordan.
01:11It's Andrew Shevchenko speaking.
01:12It's Aaron Maguire here.
01:13This is Steven Gerrard, mate.
01:15It's Jill Scott here. I just want to send you a message.
01:18I wish you all the best.
01:19Ten, ten keys.
01:20Sounds really tough.
01:21And I just want to send you some love and support.
