An ultra runner from Herefordshire believes he’s among the first to run from the Great Wall of China to Hong Kong.

Former jockey Jo Lodder, originally from Leominster, covered more than three thousand kilometres in sixty days.

The challenge has raised around £160,000 for Action Asia Foundation, which supports people with disabilities.

Lodder says he hopes to raise much more over the next two years.
