Video report by Jennifer Cordingley.
A runner from the Borders has completed the 212-mile Southern Upland Way, running the route and smashing the previous record.
Anna Rutherford, from Eddleston, ran from Portpatrick in the west to Cockburnspath in the east in 62 hours and 34 minutes - all just nine months after giving birth.
The 38-year-old lawyer told ITV Border: It s a beautiful route, it s so remote you can run for a day and not see anyone. It s absolutely stunning. But I had just given birth so I didn t know what was possible, so I thought I ll try it and see if I can run the whole way and that would be an amazing achievement.

A PEEBLESSHIRE woman who smashed the record for running the 212-mile Southern Upland Way says eating stock cubes was the secret to her success. Anna Rutherford, of Eddleston, ran the coast-to-coast route from Portpatrick to Cockburnspath in 62 hours and 34 minutes – beating the record time by more than 17 hours. The 38-year-old, who only slept for a total of 90 minutes during the challenge, said she was sick twice and developed mouth ulcers. As reported by the BBC, the Ultra Great Britain club runner said: The hardest bit was knowing how long it was and knowing that it would push me to absolute breaking point.
