First marathon for Yorkshire
Since Jane Tomlinson passed away in 2007, her family has carried on that tremendous fund-raising tradition, and today her husband Mike announced the first ever Yorkshire Marathon.
A host of stars lined up in York to launch the event, which will be organised by the Jane Tomlinson charity, "For All Events". Adam Fowler reports.
