It's no secret that I have a long throw
0:04
I played for Man City, Liverpool, Everton and the London City line S's
0:11
My throw developed when I was maybe about 12 or 13 and it's just something that I've always had
0:16
We set up a cone at the sideline, had it marked out at 35 metres
0:20
so that was the record that I had to beat. We had a mannequin in place at that 35 metre line
0:26
I run quite fast to begin with and then as I'm getting closer to the line I'll take slower steps
0:31
I'll then begin to put my hands behind my head. Then it's all about the trajectories
0:38
I probably achieved in my whole career about 20 assists through my throwing
0:42
When you've got good headers like Jen Beattie, Stepp Hawson on the receiving end of throwing
0:47
it's always brilliant. Wasn't that finally done
1:02
I would love to play forever. Unfortunately, that's not possible to play for your country forever
1:06
to play football forever. But to be able to represent my country once, never mind 55 times
1:10
which is an absolute honour for me. I can confirm that you have achieved the Guinness World Records title at 37 metres
1:17
However, do you think you could beat your own record? I reckon if I've got like a straighter runoff
1:24
I do think that I would get it further than 37 I knew in myself I could probably throw it further
1:55
So we're just about to find out whether or not she has beaten that 37 mark
2:01
I think female football at the moment is on the rise. The game has changed dramatically and it's only for the better and long may it continue
2:07
I think investment in the women's game is so important. It's the fastest growing sport in the world
2:12
Today, you attempted the female title for the farthest distance football throwing
2:16
In your first attempt, you achieved a distance of 37 metres exactly
2:22
However, that wasn't enough. And in your second attempt, you achieved 37.55 metres, which is a new Guinness World Record title
2:33
You are officially amazing! Thank you. I think record breaking is important because it shows that there is no barriers
2:42
It shows that anything is achievable in life. That gets the opportunity to be able to now have a cert to say that I can throw the ball really fast
2:49
It's quite cool. Yeah, so I'm honoured
