Mum who went viral after sports day mishap is 'still turning down date offers'

A viral mum said she's still turning down dates from men who watched her faceplant during a sports day race - and won't be running this year. Katie Hannaford, 37, has turned down "hundreds of offers of dates" since the video emerged last summer - and still gets daily messages from strangers.

The mum-of-two has vowed never to compete in a parents' sports day race again. She was convinced to run by her youngest daughter last June - and was left red-faced when she tripped and her dress flew up over her head.

In the weeks which followed the sports day, she got more than 500 messages from men all over the world questioning how she could be single. She still receives messages every day from people all over the world - the majority of them from men. She said she is now "single by choice" and has turned down "hundreds of offers of dates" - but has no regrets about sharing her hilarious mishap.
