Having revolutionised running for women during the Boston Marathon in 1967, Kathrine Switzer is preparing to run the same route again, at 70-years-old.

While competing in the race 50 years ago, Switzer was attacked by an official who did not believe women should have been able to participate.

Despite the best - or worst - efforts of the outraged official, Switzer completed the race and in doing so broke the mould of the until-then male dominated sport.

Switzer told Kathryn Ryan this time around she will be running with 125 others; 118 of them women.

“All of them have had their lives changed by running and in many ways of that particular incident, of the official jumping off the press truck, attacking me and trying to throw me out of the race.

“It was such an iconic moment and the photo of the incident became one of the iconic photos of the women’s rights movement all these years later.”

Switzer says she tried to embrace the incident and turn it into a positive.

“There’s always that split second of fear and embarrassment where you want to walk off the course but actually what I decided to do it, somehow, at age 20, made the decision to finish the race, no matter what.”Jav Nurse

Switzer then began a crusade to create other opportunities for women in running and began organising in club races.

“Then got major sponsorship, organised the Avon global circuit which went around the world, 27 countries, 400 races, 1 million women participating had their own sense of empowerment.”

She was also part of convincing the international Olympic committee to get the women’s marathon in the Olympic Games.

Switzer says she couldn’t have imagined in her lifetime how popular running would become for women all around the world.

“We’ve gone from that incident to having more women runners than men in the United States – 58 percent… actually higher in Canada. I’m seeing it also in France and Japan.

“And it’s spreading, distance running is becoming kind of a ‘women’s sport’, and it calls into question or significance that women are actually very good at running distance. Women are very good at endurance stamina, balance and flexibility and maybe this opens up a whole new world in the future of what women’s sports is going to be all about.”

The most recent event Switzer ran in was in Berlin five years ago.

“There’s a big difference between 65 and 70 (years old), trust me on this.

She says the biggest difference is in how much longer running takes her these days.

“As you age, the more time you’re on your legs the harder it is, so it’s diabolical.”

Her latest venture, 261 Fearless Inc., began after Swtizer received numerous photos and messages of runners displaying ‘261’ – her bib number during her first Boston Marathon - on them while running.

“Everybody has been told in their life that they’re not welcome or they’re not good enough, or not pretty enough or smart enough, fast enough or whatever. And then they go and do something like running and they do it anyway and they overcome that and they become fearless.

“They kept using that word, fearless.”

The main aim of 261 Fearless is to connect women around the world who are fearless, with those who may be living in fear.

“The negative part of this story, which we hope to change into a positive, is that most of the women in the world live in a fearful situation.

“It could be the woman next door or it could be the woman in Saudi. You know, it doesn’t matter. If you reach, she knows she’s not alone out there and the vehicle of running is easy cheap and accessible, even if you run virtually.”

Other questions included whether the children have been fondled or tried oral sex

A furious mother-of-two has spoken of her horror at how her children were asked in a school questionnaire if they've ever had sex.

Brandy Sobotka-Ramos only found out about it when her nine-year-old daughter and 11-year-old son began asking what anal and oral sex was - leaving her mortified.

Other questions included whether the children had been fondled, if they felt loved and if their parents had ever been to prison or attempted suicide.

The form is filled out by new pupils and the school insists it is "to help understand the challenges the children are dealing with."

But Brandy is disgusted and is calling for the member of staff at Heritage Academy, in the US state of Idaho, who issued the questionnaire to be sacked.

“I never dreamed I would be explaining anal and oral to my babies," she told Fox News.

“My children were required to complete this in class and were told it was not optional, but anonymous unless they chose to include their names."

Sara Bateman, who has an 11-year-old at the school, said: “This has definitely impacted our town.

"Parents feel betrayed and are very hurt. Many of us are looking to take legal action and I have personally been in contact with many officials.”

The body which governs the school has responded to the outcry by issuing a statement on its Facebook page thanking parents for their concerns and urging them to make an appointment with them to discuss it further.

The questionnaire - the Adverse Childhood Experiences survey - is usually given to adults to see if they've faced any childhood trauma and is often used by social work supervisors and paediatricians.

And a school spokesman also told Fox News that it had been modified for the younger children and the questions were “age appropriate”.

They said the question about sexual fondling was rewritten to read, “Has an adult or teenager touched where your swimming suit covers and made you uncomfortable?”

However, they admitted that some of the older students received the unamended adult version and apologised that the “anonymous assessment … caused anyone any anxiety”.

They added: “It is used to identify stress factors in a school or community.

"It is designed to help us understand the challenges the children are dealing with and find resources that will empower the parents and children to be successful."

A couple have spoken of their joy after becoming parents to children conceived with the help of two surrogate mothers.

Tracy and Pete Akoun suffered repeated miscarriages and fell victim to a conwoman as they battled to fulfil their dream.

They then met Tricia Hunt and Kate Fruin-Smith, two lesbians who each have their own partners and children and live in different parts of the UK.

The group came together to create Nyobi and Kenya who were born last summer exactly one month apart.

Mrs Akoun, 47, from Portsmouth, said: "I accidentally fell pregnant not long after I met Pete. It was twins and I suffered repeated losses after that.

"I saw a programme on This Morning about surrogacy and Pete went away and researched it and asked how I felt about it."

The couple created a profile on a surrogacy website but were duped by a conwoman into handing over £400.

Disappointed but undeterred, the couple joined a Facebook group for surrogacy and met Ms Fruin-Smith and Mrs Hunt, who both agreed to become surrogates using their own eggs and Mr Akoun's sperm.

The women fell pregnant - with the help of syringes and a Mooncup - in Autumn 2015.

Mrs Akoun, an assistant manager in a care home, said: "We were absolutely ecstatic. I don't think Pete took it on board at all. I think he was worried that something might go wrong.

"At the end of the day, you worry until that baby is in your arms. We took each day at a time."Porn BBW

Nyobi was born to Mrs Hunt two weeks early on June 4, 2016, at St Richard's Hospital in Chichester.

Kenya was born to Ms Fruin-Smith a month later, on July 4, at Rotherham General Hospital in South Yorkshire.

Under UK law, the surrogate is the child's legal parent until the intended parents are granted a parental order six weeks after the birth.

Mrs Akoun said she never "thought for one minute" that either woman would not be able to give up the baby.

"The relationship is like family and we're still in touch - we visit each other," she added.

"Tricia only lives 20 minutes away, they come around for dinner and we go round to theirs every three or four months.

"I don't have any jealousy or insecurity when they're here. To both girls, I am their mum.

"They've only ever known me. I did skin to skin when Nyobi was born - the only smell she knew was from me."

Mr Akoun, 26, who came to the UK from Nigeria in 2009, has also never doubted that the babies would be handed over.

The full-time dad said his daughters are delightful, adding: "They eat well, they sleep well, they play.

"Nyobi is now nine months and Kenya is eight months. When the time is right, we'll tell them about how they were conceived."

Mr Akoun was tested for sexually-transmitted infections (STIs) before entering into the surrogacy arrangement.

Mrs Akoun, who has an 18-year-old daughter, Breunne, from a previous relationship, said: "All you ever hear is the negative side of surrogacy.

But for every negative story there are 40 or 50 positive ones. "They are your children from the word go."

Couples pay surrogates expenses to cover things like maternity clothes, days off work and travel. Guidelines suggest an upper limit of around £15,000 a year.

The couple paid Mrs Hunt £750 a month while Mrs Fruin-Smith received £550 a month.

Mrs Hunt, 36, a dog groomer from Chichester, has two sons, Joe, 13, and Bradley, six, from a previous heterosexual relationship.

She also has twin girls, Katie and Jessica, aged two, from her marriage to partner Cathy, 31. Cathy conceived the girls using donor sperm.

Mrs Hunt said: "We'd had help to conceive the girls and we thought we'd try and help somebody else out - it was our way of giving back.
"I wanted to give somebody else what I had."

Mrs Hunt said there is "always an affection" for the surrogate baby and she would often chat to Nyobi while pregnant.

"But when you meet the intended mother and get to know the couple you're going to work with, you get involved in their emotion," she said.


"You see what they have been through, you see that emotion, it's raw.

"You get invested and you're desperate to get pregnant for them.

"I remember at the 20-week scan that Pete cried. It's almost like a drug. I couldn't wait for them to hold their baby."

Ms Fruin-Smith, 37, from Rotherham, is in a civil partnership with Rebecca, 28, a stay-at-home mother.

She works in a children's nursery and has four children from a previous heterosexual relationship; Daniel, 16, Heather, 15, Zoe, 11, and Thomas, nine.

She also has Lily, aged three, with Rebecca, who was conceived with donor sperm.

She said: "When I met Rebecca, we started looking into sperm donation.

"We decided that if we were going to accept help, we could help others. I spent about four or five years to think about it and look into the legalities of it all."

Ms Fruin-Smith gave birth to a girl, now aged three, for another couple before agreeing to carry for Mr and Mrs Akoun.

She said: "I had no doubts whatsoever about handing the baby over.

"The child was conceived to never be my baby - all through the pregnancy it was their child. Tracy is a very emotional person so it was amazing to see her light up at the scans.

"It's so rewarding to know you can make that much difference in somebody's life."

Sam Everingham, the father of two girls born through surrogacy and founder of Families Through Surrogacy, a not-for-profit organisation, said: "We are seeing a rise in couples trying to access surrogacy in the UK."

Louisa Ghevaert, a surrogacy, fertility and family law expert, added: ""The law relating to surrogacy in the UK is outdated.

"Reform is needed to remove legal uncertainty for intended parents and surrogate-born children."

The death of three policemen in a botched armed robbery and the resulting siege in London's East End which was photographed by the Daily Mirror helped spark the emergence of photojournalism.

Imagine a time before television when smart phones didn't exist and the only pictures of news events were grainy engraved copies of photographs in newspapers.

Daily papers were dull blocks of text which were heavy on detail and light on drama.

Then in 1904 the Daily Mirror exploited revolutionary new system which allowed the pictures to be reproduced in fine detail on its pages.

But it was a time consuming process with pictures shot on glass plate cameras which were uncomfortable to use.

What was needed was a story to capture the public and take them right into the action of a news event, and that happened in 1911 with the death of three policemen in a botched armed robbery and the resulting siege in London's East End.

It was the first time a big story was extensively covered by British photographers.

The Siege of Sidney Street of January 1911, also known as the Battle of Stepney was a gunfight between a combined police and army force and two Latvian revolutionaries.

The siege marked the first time the police had requested military assistance in London to deal with an armed stand-off.

It was also the first siege in Britain to be caught on camera and the Daily Mirror put the striking pictures on it's front page - leaving the nation gripped.

In one striking front page two Scots guards lie on their stomachs training their rifles on a house window in a deserted street putting the reader behind the guards and in the heart of the violence.

Other pictures show crowds straining against a police cordon to get a look at the dramatic siege unfolding and a top hat wearing 36-year-old Winston Churchill, then Home Secretary, on the scene peering around a corner to see what was unfolding.

The images - more than a 100 years old - are as remarkable for how close the photographers were able to get bearing in mind the dangerous situiation.

The drama unfolded in the East End of London, an area which at the time was home to thousands of Jewish immigrants who had fled persecution in Russia.

Newspaper pages filled with photographs covering the shooting (Photo: Mirrorpix)

Among the community were extreme left wing revolutionaries who struggled to adapt to life in less oppressive London and did not believe in private property.

In 1910 a group of Latvians led by a violent suspected anarchist George Gardstein decided to rob a jewellery shop at 119 Houndsditch.

The plan was to break through the back wall of the shop and crack the safe - believed to hold £30,000 of jewels - using diamond tipped drills.

On the night of December 16 working from a small yard in a property the gang had rented at 11 Exchange Buildings the robbers began to break down the wall.

A neighbour returning home heard the noises the gang were making and alert a passing policeman who investigated and knocked on the door of the house the gang were using.

Suspicious of the man who answered the door the policeman asked him "is the missus in?" so as not alert the gang and when he was told she was out said he would return later and went for reinforcements.

When he reached Houndsditch he saw to policemen from adjoining beats Walter Choate and Ernest Woodhams who watched the property while he went to a nearby police station to report it.

By 11.30pm seven uniformed and two plain clothes policemen had gathered and Sergeant Robert Bentley unaware the gang had been disturbed once already knocked again on the door again.

Gang leader Gardstein opened the door and was asked to fetch someone who spoke English and was followed into the hallway by three policemen - Sgt Bentley and Pc Woodhams and Pc Thomas Bryant.

As Bentley moved forward, the back door opened and one of the gang rushed out, firing from a pistol as he did so, he was joined by a man on the stairs also firing.

Bentley was shot in the shoulder and the neck—the second round severing his spine.

Bryant was shot in the arm and chest and Woodhams had his leg broken by a bullet, both collapsed.

As the gang escaped other police intervened and Sgt Charles Tucker from Bishopsgate police station was hit twice, once in the hip and once in the heart: he died instantly.

Choate grabbed Gardstein and wrestled for his gun, but the Russian managed to shoot him in the leg and other members of the gang ran to Gardstein's assistance, shooting Choate twelve times in the process but also wounding Gardstein.

The injured gang leader was taken to the lodgings of a gang member nicknamed "Peter the Painter" in subsequent reports.

Meanwhile Pc Tucker's was ferried to hospital by taxi along with Choate who was operated on but died while Bentley was taken to another hospital where half conscious was able to speak with his pregnant wife but he died the following evening.

The death of the three officers remains one of the largest multiple murders of police officers in Britain and shocked the country.

On 22 December a public memorial service took place for Tucker, Bentley and Choate at St Paul's Cathedral with an estimated ten thousand people waited in St Paul's environs.

After the service, when the coffins were being transported on an eight-mile journey to cemeteries, it was estimated that 750,000 people lined the route, many throwing flowers onto the hearses as they passed

A major search was launched for the gang and several were arrested.

Gardstein had been shot in the chest and when his condition worsened the gang sent for doctor but refused to let him go to hospital.

He died the next morning and it was when the doctor reported his death to the coroner the police were alerted and took the unusual step of using a picture of him taken post mortem to create a poster appeal for help.

That led to a member of public tipping off police that two gang members Fritz Svaars and Josef Sokoloffwere holed up in a second floor room at 100 Sidney Street.

At midnight on January 3 200 police officers surrounded the house and neighbours were roused and evacuated leaving the house empty except for the two men.

The design of the house included a tight staircase which made it dangerous for the police to raid the property.

Instead an officer first knocked on the door and when there was no answer threw gravel at the window.

At that Svaars and Sokoloff appeared at the window and opened fire at the police shooting a sergeant in the chest who was evacuated across the roof tops.

It was soon apparent the men had superior guns to the police and so they called the then Home Secretary Winston Churchill for permission bring in a detachment of Scots Guards, who were stationed at the Tower of London.

A detachment of 21 volunteer marksmen arrived and the two sides exchanged fire watched at one stage by Churchill who had arrived to the displeasure of the gathering crowd.

His arrival was unpopular and he later remarked he heard the crowd asking "Oo let 'em in?", in reference to the Government's immigration policy.

By 12.50pm the shooting had peaked and smoke was seen coming from the chimneys and windows and just after 1.30pm Sokoloff put his head out of the window and was shot in the head.

By 2.30pm the shooting had stopped and as the roof gave way it was apparent the men were dead, their bodies were later recovered by fire fighters although in a tragic late twist a wall collapsed on five firemen one of whom died later of his injuries.

Throughout the siege news photographers from the Daily Mirror were right in the action alongside the police and military.

The photographers used runners to take their glass photographic plates back to the office and worked in relays taking over from each other to capture the unfolding drama.

The next day the paper, which had carried the story of the botched robbery, police memorial and manhunt to it's gripped readership put the story of the shootout on the front page.

Using pictures so big in a newspaper was revolutionary and the public bought the paper in their millions.

The story was making of press photography and the story was told in Pathe newsreels and fictionalised by Alfred Hitchcock in the 1934 film The Man Who Knew Too Much.

Today there are plaques in the East End honouring the dead police officers and firefighters and tower blocks named after 'Peter the Painter' one of the gang.

A young obese woman has told how she was humiliated into losing weight when a stranger compared her to a charging RHINO as she was running for a tram.

Eva Warne, 23, saw her weight balloon to 18st 4lbs as years of gorging on Chinese takeaways, junk food and sweet treats.

She struggled to find clothes to fit her size 20 frame and with a BMI of 40 she was classed as severely obese.Jav

But after overhearing someone say she looked like a charging rhino while running for a tram in Manchester, Eva finally found the motivation she needed and lost 7st 4lbs and now wears a slim size 12.

And she looks incredible.

Pre-school teacher Eva, who lives in Cork, Ireland, said: "I couldn't believe how big I had let myself get, it was humiliating.

"I was running for a tram in Manchester when I heard a stranger say that I looked like the charging rhino from the film Jumanji.

"I had always felt uncomfortable, I was always the bigger friend and I struggled to find clothes that fit me.

"But after that incident I was completely mortified and that's when I knew I needed to make a change.

"I had got into some really bad eating habits and I would binge on takeaway most nights.

Eva was partial to a kebab after eating her dinner (Photo: Caters News Agency)

"My mum would cook healthy meals but they would never fill me up and later on in the evening I would order a Chinese or kebab and chips.

"My size even affected me at work, I was constantly tired from carrying the children in the creche and I became out of breath while playing with the bigger kids.

"But after ditching the takeaways the weight soon started to fall off and it felt amazing to finally reach my goal weight of 11 stone."

Eva admits that for as long as she can remember she had always been bigger than the other girls her age.

She added: "When I hit 18 I weighed 15st and then the weight really piled on, over the next two years I gained a further three stone.

"I was constantly out drinking with friends, and I hit a rough patch and became depressed so started comfort eating, it was a vicious cycle.

"On my 21st birthday, I had arranged a joint night out with a friends whose birthday was close to mine, but I couldn't find a dress that fit me.

"I couldn't be stylish like the other girls as I couldn't fit into clothes from Topshop or River Island.

"I had to shop in the plus size sections in Debenhams and could just about squeeze myself into the biggest sizes in Primark.

"I felt awful and it really upset me, I let my friend take the limelight all night and I refused to get in any photos."

And after the rhino incident, not long after her 21st birthday, she joined Slimming world.

Eva said: "I had tried other diets in the past but nothing ever seemed to work.

"I was really nervous at first but my consultant was really welcoming, and the group meetings really helped as I was no longer struggling by myself.

"I reached my target weight of 11st 2lbs, which felt amazing.

"I still enjoy a takeaway as a treat every now and then, but instead of ordering everything off the menu I make healthier choices."
