A man from London and his two dogs have completed 365 marathons in the past 365 days.

Along the way he's been raising money for charity.

Aaron says he's not planning on stopping yet - but if his dogs don't want to keep running, he will take a break.

The marathon-running dogs, Inca and River, get up with Aaron every morning to run around Wanstead, in East London.

Aaron Robinson says he's got used to the marathon routine

Every morning, Aaron gets up at 3am and runs a marathon. That's 26.2 miles.

He usually takes about five hours to do the run, then comes home and does a full day of work.

I think it's just a routine to be honest

He's sometimes joined by friends, but always accompanied by his two dogs, Inca and River.

Speaking about his dogs Aaron said, "they absolutely love it. When we finish they run around again."

But, he added, "If the dogs sat down in the middle of the field and said 'we're not moving', then I would stop it."

Aaron tracks all his runs on an app, and has unofficially beaten the men's Guinness World Record of 82 consecutive days of running a marathon.

The official women's record is 106 consecutive days.

But he wants to beat what he says is the unofficial record of 607 marathons in 607 days.

Aaron has unofficially beaten the Guinness World Record for the most consecutive marathons - or marathons in a row.

He said over the next year he's aiming to get to over 600 marathons. That would be over 15,000 miles of running!

What are the best dog world records?

Whilst Inca and River are helping their owner Aaron break records, dogs across the world have been breaking some records of their own.

The tiniest dog is a chihuahua from Florida, called Pearl, who is around the same length as a £5 note.

Then there's the tallest dog - Zeus - who is over one metre tall.
