Former Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds United star Carlton Palmer was admitted to hospital on Sunday after suffering a 'small heart attack' while running the Sheffield half-marathon.
Palmer - who was raising money for a number of charities - complained of heart problems in the first mile, before going on to complete the 13-mile course during which his heart rate rose to a dangerously high 232 bpm.
The 57-year-old finished in an impressive two hours, nine minutes and 21 seconds and ran alongside his wife, Lucy Kirkby-Palmer - who completed it in under two hours.
However, Palmer had to go to hospital after the race where he underwent several medical tests, having revealed his 'heart played up' at the start of the half-marathon.
