William Goodge smashes record after running across Australia in 35 days

  British athlete four days quicker than previous record holder who completed 3,800km feat in 39 days

  Spurred on by his mother’s battle with cancer, and with his father by his side, William Goodge crossed the finish line in Sydney just after 4pm on Monday.

  It brought an end to 35 days of pounding the pavement, striding the equivalent of two-and-a-half marathons a day.
