CNN —Team GB runner Rose Harvey completed the women’s marathon at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games despite having a broken leg, she said on social media. And according to the GB runner, scans after the race revealed Harvey had suffered a stress fracture to her femur. “But despite that most of my race goals having slipped away, there was still a tiny part of my Olympic dream that I could hang onto – and that was finishing the Olympic marathon. It was heartbreaking.”Harvey completed the Olympic women's marathon 78th overall with a time of 2:51:03. She had been selected to run for Team GB at the Paris Games after completing the 2023 Chicago Marathon in a time of 2:23:21, just 26 seconds off Hassan’s Olympic record time in Paris.
