Jenny left home on Tuesday at 3 p.m., and her family reported her missing to police at 9 p.m. On Wednesday, her car was found parked and by Thursday, the rescue began. Friday, a driver saw her car on video and on Saturday, the search kept going.
Jenny may have left her car near those towns, and the car find made them search a large area for her. Jenny often ran routes near Eggleston and Hamsterley too.
Search teams checked moorland on Wednesday. Jenny is tall with long, dark hair. Over one hundred miles were searched, with help from dogs and air support, but they have not found Jenny yet. She may have driven toward Barnard Castle.
The weather is bad where Jenny vanished, which makes the search harder. Police are grateful for help from Rurali group and thank the public for the support.
Police ask people to call 999 if they saw Jenny and noted that public help is appreciated. People should not search themselves because it could make things harder. Rescuers and dogs are searching.
Jenny was last seen wearing a blue hoodie with a John Deere logo. She also wore dark jogging bottoms.
