Cool runnings: Grandfather runs half-marathon with fridge on his back

A grandfather ran the Great North Run with a fridge strapped to his back.

Veteran Great North Runner Tony Phoenix-Morrison, 47, has already run the famous half-marathon 15 times and feared people may not sponsor him this year unless he did something different.

The fridge was fitted with a set of speakers powered by a car battery, weighing about 40kg (six stone) in total.
