Runner Sophie Power says it was an “overwhelming tailwind of people pushing her forward” that helped her to set a new female Guinness World Record for running the length of Ireland.
The 41-year-old mum-of-three took three days, 12 hours and eight minutes to run 347.03 miles from Malin Head in the north of the country to Mizen Head in the south. Sophie was more than three hours faster than the previous record holder, Mimi Anderson.
