:00:16. > :00:19.the streets of Bath today to cheer on the runners in the city's annual

:00:20. > :00:24.half marathon. More than 11,000 crossed the start line, braving the

:00:49. > :00:52.It is such an emotional momdnt when you see them all suddenly go. You

:00:53. > :00:55.hear the hooters and the whole lot charge off. When they come back over

:00:56. > :00:59.the finishing line, and thex are full of excitement and joy, and

:01:00. > :01:04.sweat, and often exhausted, it is an amazing feeling. And in the middle

:01:05. > :01:06.of all this, one amazing man, who's been running almost nonstop since

:01:07. > :01:12.Thursday, all over the West, completing a 206 mile challdnge I'm

:01:13. > :01:17.a little tired but we're on the final leg now. The last 13 liles. It

:01:18. > :01:24.has been a fantastic journex and the atmosphere here is almost alazing.

:01:25. > :01:28.What a great way to finish the run. Some were clearly going to take

:01:29. > :01:33.longer than others. But the winner from Kenya needed just over an hour,

:01:34. > :01:41.a personal best time. I was not expecting to win. I am saying thank

:01:42. > :01:47.God. Like the men, Kenya's women managed a one`two as well. But local

:01:48. > :01:52.runner Lucy McAlister came hn third. I possibly went a bit hard `nd too

:01:53. > :01:57.optimistic. I was pleased to hold onto the position, if not the time.

:01:58. > :02:00.The crowd was amazing today. But if you're not in the medals, why put

:02:01. > :02:05.yourself through the pain? Dach and every runner has a reason. Ly

:02:06. > :02:09.husband has cancer so we ard raising money to get help for a new cancer

:02:10. > :02:14.unit. We have raised ?6000 hn our unit. Last year more than ?2 million

:02:15. > :02:20.was raised here for charity. They are confident that is one rdcord

:02:21. > :02:23.that has been broken again. Final preparations are under way

:02:24. > :02:28.ahead of Jenny Jones' bus tour through Bristol tomorrow. She'll

:02:29. > :02:32.leave Downend School at 4pm on this double decker with her family and

:02:33. > :02:36.friends. They'll then make their way into Bristol city centre for a

:02:37. > :02:41.ceremony at City Hall to mark the snowboarder's achievements `t Sochi

:02:42. > :02:45.where she won a bronze medal. In football, no losses for our local

:02:46. > :02:49.teams this weekend with two wins and three draws. It was an eventful

:02:50. > :02:55.afternoon for Yeovil Town, who had three men sent off, but still

:02:56. > :02:59.managed a draw at Reading. Lichelle Ruminski reports.

:03:00. > :03:02.The Glovers got off to a strong start at the Madejski in thd

:03:03. > :03:06.Championship, after this he`der from Shane Duffy. Red card number one was

:03:07. > :03:09.for Byron Webster, who saw red for conceding a penalty. Adam Ld

:03:10. > :03:12.Fondre's spot`kick was saved by Marek Stech, but John Lundstram then

:03:13. > :03:18.scored this bizarre own goal from the resulting corner. Joe R`lls and

:03:19. > :03:21.Keiffer Moore also got their marching orders, but second bottom

:03:22. > :03:31.Yeovil managed to hold on for a point. I can't remember too many

:03:32. > :03:35.times that we have been down to eight men. I didn't think it was a

:03:36. > :03:38.dirty game necessarily. We got ourselves 1`0 up, and deservedly so.

:03:39. > :03:41.They came out with a bit of momentum, and their good pl`yer and

:03:42. > :03:46.our miss`timed tackles led to.. One was two yellows and we had two reds.

:03:47. > :03:50.Bristol City managed to movd out of the League One danger zone, after

:03:51. > :03:55.Sam Baldock and Simon Gillett both scored against Gillingham. Ht ended

:03:56. > :03:59.2`1 at Ashton Gate. Swindon were left frustrated, after they dropped

:04:00. > :04:09.two points in their promotion push. Town drew 1`1 against Crewe, after

:04:10. > :04:11.Ryan Harley gave them the ldad. And in League Two, Cheltenham Town

:04:12. > :04:14.recorded a 2`1 victory over Bury, keeping them in mid`table. Three

:04:15. > :04:19.points behind them are Bristol Rovers, who drew 0`0 at Northampton.

:04:20. > :04:31.This was as close as Rovers came to breaking the deadlock. Michdlle

:04:32. > :04:38.Ruminski, BBC Points West. Hn Rugby Bristol remain at top the

:04:39. > :04:42.championship. .The 34`26 victory was enough to secure a bonus pohnt, as

:04:43. > :04:45.they ran in four converted tries at Clifton Lane. Ben Mosses crossed

:04:46. > :04:50.twice, this his second, as well as Ross Rennie and Nick Koster. If you

:04:51. > :04:56.are caught up on traffic on the A419, it could have been thhs, the

:04:57. > :05:05.fuse a large of an Airbus. Ht was almost 50 metres long and took up

:05:06. > :05:09.two lanes as it made its three our journey.

:05:10. > :05:13.Hope it didn't cause too many problems. Now the weather whth Holly

:05:14. > :05:16.Green. Good evening. This afternoon's rain

:05:17. > :05:18.has been replaced by heavy, thundery showers. They're continuing through

:05:19. > :05:21.tonight and into tomorrow. Those showers developing pretty qtickly

:05:22. > :05:25.and bringing that risk of some hail and thunder too, but note wd will

:05:26. > :05:29.see quite a few clear spells, and that means it will get quitd chilly.

:05:30. > :05:33.We could well see some frost and ice. We have also got the rhsk of

:05:34. > :05:36.some snow as we head into tomorrow morning. We could see a few

:05:37. > :05:38.centimetres, perhaps, above 300 centimetres. Even those showers will

:05:39. > :05:42.be heavy, thundery and slow`moving. We could well see a lot of surface

:05:43. > :05:46.water and spray on the roads, but there will be some sunny spdlls

:05:47. > :05:49.around as well. Top temperatures between six and eight degreds.

:05:50. > :05:52.Thereafter, through the rest of the week I think we will see sole bright

:05:53. > :05:55.conditions around at times, but also the risk of some further rahn or

:05:56. > :05:58.showers. That's it from Points West for now.

:05:59. > :06:01.Do remember though, you can watch Points West bulletins and today s

:06:02. > :06:07.edition of The Politics Show in the West via

:06:08. > :06:12.will be back. Good evening. The chances are, you

:06:13. > :06:16.are enjoying your evening on a nice warm sofa while it rains outside.

:06:17. > :06:20.Pretty heavy rain in parts of the country and for tomorrow morning,

:06:21. > :06:24.wrap up warmly, it will be a cheap upstart right across the country.

:06:25. > :06:27.This is where the rain is right now from Portsmouth to London across to

:06:28. > :06:31.the north-east and the east of the country and it will push out into

:06:32. > :06:40.the North Sea. Not all of the rain will clear away but it will be cold

:06:41. > :06:42.enough for some icy stretches across parts of Northern Ireland, the

:06:43. > :06:46.Northwest of England, too, but everywhere will have a chilly start.

:06:47. > :06:51.Not exclusively snow to higher ground, maybe to some lower land,

:06:52. > :06:55.too, but in the south-east, rain showers and pretty grey and

:06:56. > :06:59.unpleasant, but other parts will be enjoying some sunshine, but Swales,

:07:00. > :07:04.parts of Yorkshire. North-east Scotland looks like staying grey,

:07:05. > :07:08.wet and cold. Not so bad on Tuesday for the bulk of country but if it

:07:09. > :07:13.does rain, it will be in Cornwall and maybe Devon, but this rain could

:07:14. > :07:14.completely miss us and end up in France. On Tuesday, still into

:07:15. > :07:15.single
