A HASLEMERE resident dressed as a fox ran a half-marathon on Sunday to raise funds for animal welfare charity the League Against Cruel Sports.

Rolf Lewendon-Strutt ran the Royal Parks Half-Marathon in London.

Rolf said: "I ran for this charity because killing animals for fun has no place in this modern world. I really wanted to represent hunted animals, so I chose to run in a fox costume."

League Against Cruel Sports chief executive Andy Knott said: "It’s wonderful that Rolf not only completed a half-marathon, but to do it dressed in a fox costume is a tribute to his passion for ending fox hunting in this country."
