A 12-year-old Belfast girl says she just tries to "run as fast as I can" after producing a 5km time of 16 minutes 40 seconds - a world record for her age.
Emer McKee set the remarkable time while running in an event at Down Royal Racecourse over the weekend.
The running prodigy is a member of the Willowfield Club in East Belfast.
"Normally I'm just running as fast as I can and just waiting for it to be over," she told BBC Radio Ulster.
