An Omagh man has completed the Dublin marathon in his bare feet in order to raise funds for the RNLI charity after having been rescued from a rip current in July.

Chris Gallagher completed the 26.2 mile marathon last month and talked about his experience after having required a rescue from the lifeboat organisation and the Irish Coast Guard.
