Think I read something like 14 and a half hours...!
Depending on which side of 14:30 that will be the third or fourth fastest time ever!
Well done her. I've not heard of her, what else has she done?
50 mins off ladies BG record in 14.34.26
Poacher turned game-keeper
She did Shipley Parkrun Noel in 19-31. It’s two laps and there’s a much bigger hill than I expected when I did it

It'll be the 4th official fastest time ever (KJ, BB, RJ), though in actually the 5th as there was tat scottish bloke from COlorado who did 14:20 but mainly unsupported a few years back.
One of those runners where I know the name but not really the results, She's got a fair palmares on her: https://www.bethpascall.com/race
It seems she's taken a sabbatical from work as a paediatrician this year and was aiming at UTMB and Western states , so will have the frustration of not racing those channelled.
I think the BG club should hold a moratorium on use of the phrase 'FKT'

Just updating the splits for the ladies' summer record. Beth was faster than Jasmin on most of the tops, losing time, mostly just a minute, on just nine tops but she'd immediately claw that back and more on the next couple. Time and gains per leg were:
Leg 1: 2:34 - 10mins
Leg 2: 2:51 - 12mins
Leg 3: 3:56 - 11mins
Leg 4: 3:17 - 11mins
Leg 5: 1:56 - 6mins
Amazing effort! Well done!
I totally agree, there is something unseemly and American about it!Originally Posted by ba-ba
There's a decent podcast where Adharand Finn interviews her, worth a listen.
