LYMM firefighter Becky Wightman has completed her 24 hour run around Lymm Fire Station covering a distance of 90 miles and raising £3,000 for The Fire Fighters Charity.
Becky started running for 24 hours at 10am on Friday morning– including through the night without rest or sleep until 10am on Saturday..
Becky was due to run the Ultra marathon race but it was cancelled following Covid-19 – so instead she put on her running shoes to complete laps around Lymm Fire Station.
She was cheered on by her colleagues and some even joined in to show support.
