Prime Minister Andrew Holness has congratulated Jamaican ultrarunner Varden Morris who won the Great Virtual Race Across Tennessee in a record-breaking performance.
50 year old Morris, who lives in Alberta and is from Jamaica, completed the 1,000 Kilometre distance in 9 days and 23 hours, averaging more than 100 Kilometres per day.
Morris ran around his neighbourhood in Calgary, with a routine of running for six hours and resting for five.
Morris defeated fellow Canadians Matthew Shepard and Crissy Parsons who finished in 13 days and 15 days, respectively.
