She crossed the finishing line today in Manchester and told the Mirror: “In a strange way it is sad that it’s all ending.

“I put so much time and effort in it and I enjoyed it so much. It’s going to be strange, I’m not really going to know what to do with myself, I’ve been 100 per cent concentrating on the runs for 53 days.”
