A man who literally went the extra mile to prove his love for his woman has set online users in a frenzy and has been trending on social media.
The 57-year-old South African man, identified as Joseph Kagiso Ndlovu, ran a 90km (56-mile) ultra-marathon to propose to a woman named Prudence.
He was pictured holding a banner asking the woman to marry him, as he approached the finish line of the Comrades Marathon on Sunday.
“Prudence, will you marry me? Run 90k for you,” read the banner.
Mr Ndlovu told the BBC on Monday that Prudence Dick, who was at the race to support him, said yes to his proposal.
He said they have been dating since the beginning of this year and plan to get married sometime next year.
He added that this was the seventh time he was taking part in the marathon and that she was the main motivation for his participation this time, especially after a two-year break.
Below is the video of the man with the banner.
