Congratulations to Sunwise Team member Mimi Anderson on her latest World Record for the fastest crossing of Ireland on foot by a female. This is a massive test of strength and determination over 345 miles in less than 4 days.
Mimi’s challenge began at 6.01am on 22nd September with two official starters and adrenalin pumping round her body. Mimi soon settled into a comfortable pace and along with her trusted crew set into a routine. Setting herself targets along her route to keep her focus and give a boost each time she hit her goal.
