Eight girls from St Swithun's School in Winchester took part in the run on Brighton seafront to raise more than £3,000 for charity.

The girls were taking part in the annual Heroes Run, where entrants dress up as their heroes and run either 5Km or 10km for good causes.

They all dressed up as nurses in recognition of the people who have been looking after Felix at the Royal Marsden Hospital children's unit.
