The 38-mile walk, which took the group from Borth to Pontrhydfendigaid, took them just over 14 hours to complete, passing through Bontgoch, Ystumtuen, Cwmystwyth and Pontrhydygroes.
Speaking before the walk, Rob Crumpler explained: "Basically a group of us at Royal Mail Aberystwyth try and do a charity event every year. "The charity this year is Cancer Research UK, we chose this because we sadly lost a colleague of ours late last year to the disease, so we would like to dedicate this years event to him.".
