An ultra-marathon runner has been disqualified from a race in England, for using a car during part of the route.
Joasia Zakrzewski, finished third in the 50-mile 2023 GB Ultras race from Manchester to Liverpool earlier this month.
However, the BBC reports the 47-year-old from Scotland, is thought to have travelled by car for 2.5 miles after GPX mapping data revealed she covered a mile of the race in just one minute 40 seconds.
A friend said Ms Zakrzewski had felt sick and was sorry for any upset.
