A woman ran the Cardiff Half Marathon in her wedding dress

Bride-to-be Siobhan Corria and her partner Terence Canning had an early wedding celebration when they took part in the Cardiff Half Marathon over the weekend. The couple ran the course wearing bride and groom outfits in a bid to raise money and awareness for a charity close to their hearts.

The half marathon was the eighth of 10 runs they intend to complete before their wedding at Cardiff's City Hall on December 3. They have been raising money for the UK Sepsis Trust, in memory of Terence's brother Mark who died from the condition on June 2, 2012. Mark's family had never heard of sepsis before his death, but have spent the past decade raising awareness and urging people to look out for the symptoms.

Shortly before the Golden Jubilee weekend in 2012, Mark, died from organ failure due to sepsis. The 41-year-old, who had moved to London from Cardiff, was physically fit and had just taken part in a triathlon.
