It's hard to imagine what Jade Goody is going through.

The reality TV star is battling cervical cancer - and she has been one brave lady so far.

But how does she stay so strong in her fight against the disease?

It seems that she has found some inspiration in the form of Trisha Goddard.

Jade told Now! magazine that she has been influenced by the television presenter's recent triumph over breast cancer.

"Hats off to Trisha. I hear she has been running practically every day during treatment - amazing," she said. "I would love to be able to do that."

Trish - who was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year - recently told the Daily Mail that exercise was one of her salvations, and that she too had a figure of motivation. Trisha GoddardTrisha Goddard

"Running is what I tried to do as soon as I got out of hospital. I started power-walking in the snow near my Norfolk home, and then slowly but surely started running again - up to six miles," she said.

"My greatest inspiration when I was running in the rain and felt like curling up in the nettles and vomiting was the late Jane Tomlinson, the cancer campaigner, who ran so many marathons."

While Trish was cleared of cancer last month, Jade is still fighting it with intensive chemo and radiotherapy treatment.
