A Halifax nurse completed the AJ Bell Great North Run on the tenth anniversary of her brother's death.
Jessica Hodgins, 38, who works at Bradford Royal Infirmary, raised more than £450 for the British Heart Foundation (BHF) in memory of her older brother Damien, who died of a heart attack aged 39.
Ms Hodgins said: "I’m so proud to do this for Damien and to be doing it at a similar age to him when he passed.
"I had his name on the back of my BHF top.
"Taking part in the 2024 AJ Bell Great North Run for the BHF was such a huge challenge and an incredible experience.
"The atmosphere around the course was electric and it was amazing having so many people cheering me on, it made me even more determined to cross the finish line.
"The research that the BHF does makes such a difference to the 7.6 million people in the UK living with heart and circulatory diseases.
"I’m proud that I’m doing as much as I can to support their amazing work to help fund the next big scientific breakthrough."
