'Our goal was to break the world record together'

A County Tyrone-born runner has helped set a new world record for the fastest marathon run while pushing a wheelchair.

Sean McQuaid is originally from Dungannon but now lives in San Diego, California.

As part of the duo-marathon the 33-year-old pushed his teammate Riley Pathman in a specially-adapted chair.

Riley was born with cerebral palsy, which affects his movement and coordination.

Last month the pair smashed the Guinness world record by completing a marathon in Minnesota in two hours, 35 minutes and 26 seconds.
