History-making runner says she did Barkley Marathons to inspire women. #BBCNews #Shorts

I knew that there were people kind of cheering me on and there was lots of noise and um but I was just aiming for the gate and I everything else open and blurry up the edges of my vision and I just needed to make it to the gate at

Which point I sort of collapsed down in a um gasping kind of Heap on the ground it wasn’t until the last kilometer that I really sort of doubted that it was going to be possible and at that point I was um I was just so desperate to stop

And to startop running and to walk and I knew that I couldn’t cuz I wouldn’t make it I think it was just the thought that if I didn’t make it this time it was going to be by seconds and then I would have to come back and do the whole thing

Again so I did it for me and and I’m super happy that I achieved what I set out to do and I’m really glad that I kind of did it for women um worldwide as well not just Runners I guess the next thing I’m going to do is a is a um the

Scottish islands Peaks race but really I think maybe just have a bit of a rest

  18. Apparently women, after all the supports and privilages hadn't gotten enough inspiration . Let's be real they want to hustle or work their ass off that's all. Every rights men has women has that too…but don't know who are stopping them 😂
