Tim Stevens, 36, from Telford, ran 12 marathons in 12 days to raise money for Severn Hospice - finishing the stunning feat on Sunday.
His efforts have seen him raise more than £4,190 on his Just Giving page - with the total to be boosted even further through gift aid.
Nicky Green, from Severn Hospice's fundraising team said the charity has been overwhelmed at Tim's efforts - in the cold and wet, while most people were enjoying the festive season
She said: "Not only is Tim a mega-marathon runner, he is a mega supporter of Severn Hospice.
"He really pulled out all the stops for us this Christmas time and to commit to running a marathon every day for the 12 days of Christmas was quite an undertaking.
"While the rest of us were enjoying our Christmas dinners, spending time with family or opening presents, he was out in the cold, rain and snow racking up the miles.
"He is a truly wonderful guy and we can't thank him enough.
"The money he has raised and which has been so generously donated will go towards our care - and Tim can know that he will have a made a real difference to the people we support."
