Jill Scott has completed her extraordinary Coming Home Challenge for Sport Relief, crossing the finish line at Sunderland's Stadium of Light to a roaring crowd after travelling 388 miles across England in what she has described as the toughest challenge of her life.
After setting off from Wembley Stadium five days ago, the Lioness legend returned home to a hero's welcome, flanked by family, friends and thousands of supporters who lined the streets of Sunderland to cheer her across the finish line as she completed a marathon on her final day.
Visibly emotional after completing the final 28 mile run from Bishop Auckland to Sunderland, Jill brought an end to a remarkable journey that has captured hearts across the country and raised an incredible £470,677 for Sport Relief so far.
Over five relentless days, Jill cycled from Wembley to Birmingham and Liverpool, completed a gruelling 38-mile ultramarathon to Manchester, battled through endless hills and driving rain on the road to Bishop Auckland, before digging deep one final time to run 28-miles on the final leg today. On the final day of her journey, Jill ran through her former school, Durham High School, before continuing her emotional journey towards the Sunderland finish line.
