Mum runs 60 marathons in 60 days

A mum from Southampton - who has set a new world record by running 60 marathons in 60 days - says the achievement was on her "bucket list".

Alice Burch ran a total distance of 1,560 miles, which is the equivalent of running from John O'Groats to Monte Carlo. She told 5 live: "Some days it's an absolute slog to just keep going" whether she was "running really slowly or walking".

Alice, who is 34-years-old, started the challenge on October the 1st and finished on November 29th. She was running to raise money for charity.
