Most grooms would spend their wedding day morning nervously getting ready for the ceremony ahead.
But Kevin Betts, is taking a different approach by running a marathon instead.
And he won't be stopping there.
Long-suffering bride Amy Spriggs has not only resigned herself to her husband-to-be heading off to the gym to pound out 26.2 miles on a treadmill on July 2.
Their honeymoon at the end of September will also involve a marathon race at some point, although the exact location hasn't yet been worked.
Run fan Kevin will also be fitting in a marathon when he heads off to his stag do in Las Vegas in May.
In all he has set himself a target of running 52 marathons in 2011, working out at about one a week.
