Sandra Brown: a legendary, British ultra long distance walker with an unsurpassed track record 

Sandra Brown is probably the greatest female long distance walker in the world.

Due to her top-3 position on the world ranking 24 hour Race walk women (200 km/ 24:04:20) and her 1ste place on the Centurion ranking << all continents >> (161 km/ 18:36:29), in combination with other exceptional performances and the longevity of her career, her amazing record is unequaled.  

Best memories

My best memories in my career that are indelible in my mind are in descending order:

♦ Setting an absolute top time in de UK Centurion 1984 in Leicester: 18 u 36' 29"
♦ My performance in the 200 km of Vallorbe (CH) 1991: 200 km in 24 u 04' 20"
♦ "The Manchester - Blackpool" Race walk 50 miles (= 80,467 km) at an average of more than 10 km/h: 7 h 54' 54"  
   The setting of a women's record under 8H was described by the Race Organiser as << the greatest exhibition of long distance walking ever seen in this country >>  
♦ Realizing an extraordinary performance in the 50 km Race walk of Basildon (GB) by setting a time under the 5-hour barrier: 4 h 50' 51"
