The Parkrun participants smiled, waved and laughed at the 6ft 9in boxing champ as he cheerfully told them: "You're all running the wrong way!"

Earlier, Tyson had posted footage of Morecambe Bay as he was running along the seafront.

"Final session of the week, nice little run down the promenade here in Morecambe Bay, absolutely beautiful, what a place," he said on the video clip, which he posted to his Instagram story.

Fury, 33, runs on Morecambe Promenade on a regular basis.

The WBC Heavyweight Champion has often spoken of how regular jogging on the prom helps him to manage his mental health.

The Morecambe Parkrun takes place every Saturday at 9am.
