Two musical stars have made a special tribute song to a young runner who died after collapsing just 100 meters from the half marathon finish line. Kory Russell, 25, from Sully had been running the Royal Parks Half Marathon in London in October this year alongside 16,000 others when he collapsed near the end. To pay tribute to the young runner, McFly singer Tom Fletcher and fellow West End Paddington The Musical star James Hameed have recorded a song which was played at his funeral in Cardiff on Friday, November 28. The 25-year-old was treated at the scene for cardiac arrest before being rushed to hospital where he was pronounced dead. Never miss a Cardiff story by signing up to our daily newsletter here .
