British woman removed from ultramarathon after Muslims threaten to behead her

A British woman has been withdrawn from an ultramarathon after receiving online threats to behead her.

Sarah Porter was 30 miles through the 108-mile Montane Winter Spine Challenger South endurance race along the Pennine Way when organisers made the decision to withdraw her because of safety concerns.

Porter was undertaking the challenge to raise money for young girls and women in Afghanistan and received death threats online, with some social media posts appearing to suggest she would be decapitated on January 11.
