A veteran fundraiser, who ran a marathon every day for a year, is attempting to run 100 miles in 24 hours.

Gary McKee will run loops of 12.5 miles (20km) every three hours, setting off at 09:00 BST from Cleator Moor, near Whitehaven, Cumbria.

He is raising funds for Hospice at Home West Cumbria in memory of his friend Brian Telford.

Mr McKee said: "Hospice care doesn't stop in any 24-hour period, so why should I":[]}
