A football fan who found global support after being trolled online has completed a half marathon - and raised £60,000.

Norwich City fan Nathan West, 31, was mocked online for a video interview ahead of the Canaries' Millwall clash.

He planned to raise £500 for Macmillian Cancer Support but donations from around the world flooded in from people defending him against online trolls.

Mr West, of Earsham, Norfolk, completed the Tonbridge Half Marathon on Sunday.

Finishing within one hour, 46 minutes and 14 seconds, he said it was "an amazing challenge".
