Just before 4am yesterday, Lizzie Richardson of Tanygrisiau set off from Llanberis to attempt the Paddy Buckley Round. She set a blistering pace and kept it up all day to finish in a time of 17 hours 22 minutes and 54 seconds. This knocked an hour and eleven minutes off the previous women's record by Jasmin Paris set in 2016. Incredible effort - well done Lizzie.

A quite stunning performance. Many of the pacers (I was one)were dropping like flies, Lizzie just kept powering on.

It's on Strava but you need to request to follow Lizzie to see it. Not really much more info there in terms of a story...hopefully there will be a blow by blow write-up at some point!

Amazing run!! I'm a mess in the heat so it just seems mind boggling to me. All I can think about is nausea and dehydration, slowing to a walk and then giving up within about 3-4 hrs. And I'd be at a slower pace than she managed for 4x that!

Doesn't really provide more info, as such, but it's on the Open Tracking FB page...
