A woman who lost her left leg to cancer is set to set a Guinness World Record for continuing to run a marathon.


Jackie Hunt- Brosna, 46, has been running 26.2 miles daily in the vane since mid - January.


The time she spends daily is close to 5 hours.


Last Saturday she ran the relevant distance for the 104th consecutive day. It is believed to be a Guinness World Record and she has requested the Guinness Book of World Records for this.


It will take about 3 months to get the approval.
