A Poole dietician's aiming to run the equivalent of forty-two marathons in just a few weeks, to raise awareness of the importance of good mental health and nutrition.

Vicky Willan, who works at St Ann's Hospital, starts her twelve-hundred mile journey in North Scotland today, hoping to be back in Hamworthy by September the twentieth.

She's been helped to prepare by sport scientists at Bournemouth University, who'll also analyse her running.
