Emergency crews came to the aid of a runner who collapsed while out in Guisborough Woods.
A woman was running on Sunday evening when she started to feel unwell and collapsed.
Members of Cleveland Mountain Rescue Team (CMRT) were called by the North East Ambulance Service at about 6pm.
The team arrived to find the woman had already been treated by paramedics.
Volunteers transported the runner and the ambulance crew 800m through the woods in the back of one of their Land Rovers to the waiting ambulance.
A spokesman for the rescue team said: “This was a speedy response by all involved with the team standing down after just 39 minutes.
“There were 12 team members involved in the rescue and the two ambulance staff were also CMRT team members so the evacuation of the casualty was made very quickly.”
