A woman has set a new time record for scaling all the mountains in Scotland higher than 3,000 feet
Ultra-runner Jamie Aarons finished the challenge in 31 days 10 hours and 27 minutes, breaking the previous record by more than 12 hours.
There are 282 mountains that meet the benchmark and they are known collectively as the Munros.
The challenge saw Aarons ascend 459,000 ft, the equivalent of climbing Mount Everest 16 times.
She also ran, cycled and kayaked between each of the Munros, covering a total of around 932 miles (1,500km) on foot and about the same distance by bike.
