Although Hilda’s accomplishment was unquestionably extraordinary, a miscalculation with her rest breaks led to GWR withholding the announcement of her 100-hour claim.
However, it should not overshadow the fact that Hilda broke the previous record by a staggering 93 hours and 11 minutes. Her dedication and perseverance are truly commendable.
Upon learning the news of her achievement, Hilda responded with overwhelming excitement and gratitude.
Taking to Twitter, she expressed her joy, exclaiming, “this is the best news ever omg omg omg thank you so much.” Such a response reflects the magnitude of her accomplishment and the emotional impact it had on her.
