Sophie Habbo shares pH๏τos of ‘broken’ husband Jamie Laing as he sets off for day four of his gruelling Ultra Marathons challenge after raising staggering amount for Comic Relief

Sophie Habboo shared a pH๏τo of her ‘broken’ husband Jamie Laing collapsed on a H๏τel floor ahead of day four of his gruelling Ultra Marathons challenge for Comic Relief.

The BBC Radio 1 presenter, 36, is taking on five Ultra Marathons in five days – a total of 150 miles – he aims to finish in Salford, Manchester on Friday, March 21.

And before setting out on his fourth marathon on Thursday, Sophie shared with her fans that Jamie is ‘in so much pain’ as he leaned against a suitcase while sat on a floor sipping on a Lucozade. 

She penned: ‘2 more days to do. Thank you so so much for your support. Please if you can keep supporting to get him through the next 2 days – he is so broken and needs all the support he can get – it’s the only thing getting him through. 

‘He’s in so much pain and I am so beyond proud of him.’ 

Jamie was seen sharing a quick kiss with his wife and saying goodbye to his friends before starting off on his fourth marathon in four days.

In a second clip, Jamie was seen running along the road as he updated fans, ‘this pain is the worst pain ever. I feel like I’m running on a broken ankle.’ 

But it seems to be paying off for the Candy Kittens founder as it was revealed that he has already raised an incredible half a million pounds in donations. 

Sophie later took to Instagram at Jamie’s first pit stop and revealed that he is in ‘excruciating pain and has been sick on the side of the road’. 

She penned: ‘Guys the support is unbelievable but it is hell to see him in this much pain, please keep donating – it makes it all so worth it – thank you, thank you, thank you.

‘1st pit stop of the day – It’s all down to mental now – his ankle is in excrutiating pain and he’s been sick on the side of the road but he is determined to not let anyone down. So beyond proud’.  

It comes after Jamie became emotional after completing day three of his gruelling Ultra Marathon challenge at Loughborough University where Sophie was waiting to surprise him. 

Jamie looked emotional as he fell to the ground, before being embraced by Sophie and cheered on by pals. 

Taking to Instagram to reflect on day three, Jamie wrote: ‘Day 3 done – if I’m totally honest I didn’t think I would get through today. At 25km’s I thought I couldn’t go further, mentally and physically I was completely done.

‘I have never experienced pain like this before. It has felt like I have been running on glᴀss, and my mind was being pretty negative, but every time I wanted to quit I would have a moment that spurred me on – a cheer, a donation, something!!

‘I have more graтιтude for the support I’ve been shown that I will ever be able to find the words for. This is the hardest thing I have ever done, but it would be 1000 times harder alone.

‘Tomorrow we go again… Thank you so much for your support, thank you for every donation. Truly thank you!! If you feel like donating, only if you can there is the link in my bio.

‘Thank you so much to everyone!! You guys are amazing❤️’

The money raised for Radio 1’s Ultra Marathon Man with Jamie for Red Nose Day will provide vital funds that could help put food on plates and roofs over heads, keep little ones safe and help support families affected by conflict here in the UK and around the world.

Jamie has set expectations high after completing day one of the ultra marathon in an impressive 5hours and 44minutes and burned over 4,000 calories.

Jamie’s spirits were further lifted at the finish line when he was surprised by his mum, who cheered him on with open arms.

To make the moment even more special, the Mayor of Kettering, Cllr Craig Skinner, presented Jamie with an honorary half-marathon lanyard as a symbolic gift of appreciation for his relentless effort.

‘It’s a small token of our appreciation really, this is something that took place last week – our first half marathon in Kettering. So, we’d like to give it to you as a symbolic gift of your struggle’, said the Mayor.

Radio 1’s Ultra Marathon Man with Jamie Laing for Red Nose Day will be broadcast live on Radio 1 and BBC Sounds across the week, with video highlights on Radio 1’s social channels.
