‘I broke the world record with my last ever run’

A woman has been told she might never run again after running a marathon every day for 106 days – but has become a world record holder in the process.

Kate Jayden, from Hartington, Derbyshire, finished her final run on 15 April, despite suffering a broken knee.

Her achievement has now been verified by Guinness World Records and her efforts have raised thousands of pounds for charity.

She said: “I didn’t realise that that last day that I was going to tie up my running shoes… that that was going to be my last long distance run.”
