Not once, but twice Anna Morris broke the world record on Saturday evening as she won the individual pursuit gold medal at the European Track Championships.

The Brit, already world champion in the event, won by a staggering eight seconds in her final against Italy’s Vittoria Guazzini. Her time of 4:25.874 marked a new world record in the 4,000m discipline, shaving almost three seconds off the 4:28.306 she set in qualifying, which also beat the previous benchmark.
