Lady runs marathon number 366 in 365 days – world record
A Danish lady Annette Fredskov from the old royal city of Næstved broke a world record running 366 marathons in 365 days – in her fight against sclerosis. It is the first time in the world a person has run a marathon each day a year in a row.
She has run 15,443 km or the equivalent to twice the entire Danish coastline. She has worn out 20 pairs of shoes in a total time corresponding to 76 days.
