0:00:44 > 0:00:46It's amazing.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48I got amazing support from the crowd.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50I just wanted to go for it.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53This was my last chance to run quick before Rio.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56This track has so much meaning for me.

0:00:56 > 0:01:02You dream of the Olympics but to do it in your hometown is amazing.

0:01:02 > 0:01:07Elsewhere, Katarina Johnson-Thompson added a personal best in the

0:01:07 > 0:01:11long jump, winning the competition with a jump of 6.84 metres.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28when he wins the Tour de France for a third time.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31He will be the first Briton to achieve the feat and Chris said

0:01:31 > 0:01:36the last stretch in Paris is likely to be emotional.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39Now to the extraordinary traffic jam causing big problems

0:01:39 > 0:01:42at the Port of Dover in the south-east of England.

0:01:42 > 0:01:46Thousands of vehicles were caught up in delays of up to 14 hours

0:01:46 > 0:01:48trying to get to the port.

0:01:48 > 0:01:52Families have spent the night in their cars and police are warning

0:01:52 > 0:01:55that the disruption could last for another day.

0:01:55 > 0:01:59Officials are blaming the huge queues on lots of people trying

0:01:59 > 0:02:03to get away on holiday and stricter security checks.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06He's one of Britain's greatest adventurers.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09And Sir Ranulph Fiennes is attempting

0:02:09 > 0:02:12a new record-breaking challenge for charity.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15Ayshah caught up with him to find out what he's up to.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18Sir Ranulph Fiennes is one of Britain's greatest

0:02:18 > 0:02:19modern-day explorers.

0:02:19 > 0:02:23He has spent most of his life taking part in epic expeditions

0:02:23 > 0:02:25and death-defying challenges.

0:02:25 > 0:02:29He's even conquered Mount Everest, the world's tallest mountain.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33But there's still one quest for the 72-year-old to complete.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37The challenge is to cross Antarctica, which is bigger

0:02:37 > 0:02:41than China, to cross the Arctic Ocean, which is floating

0:02:41 > 0:02:45ice for 2,000 miles over the North Pole, and to climb

0:02:45 > 0:02:50the tallest mountain on every continent in the world

0:02:50 > 0:02:53and there are seven continents.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56Sir Ranulph has already reached the North and South Poles

0:02:56 > 0:03:00and climbed the highest mountains on three continents so far.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03In the next year, he'll attempt to reach the peak of four more

0:03:03 > 0:03:05mountains.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07Mount Carstensz in Australasia, Mount Vinson in Antarctica,

0:03:07 > 0:03:13Mount Aconcagua in South America, and finally the dangerous

0:03:13 > 0:03:16Mount Denali in North America.

0:03:16 > 0:03:23What we want to do is to raise big money by doing it.

0:03:23 > 0:03:31The money will go to training nurses in the Marie Curie organisation.

0:03:31 > 0:03:35Charity, science and breaking world records before the Norwegians

0:03:35 > 0:03:39are three of the reasons why we keep going.

0:03:39 > 0:03:43But even after achieving so much, there's one person that Sir Ranulph

0:03:43 > 0:03:45can't seem to impress.

0:03:45 > 0:03:50My ten-year-old daughter is very, very interested in becoming a vet.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53That is what she wants.

0:03:53 > 0:03:56But she's not at all interested in a daddy that goes away

0:03:56 > 0:03:59and does funny things in funny places.

0:03:59 > 0:04:03Well, Newsround is very interested and we'll be keeping a close eye

0:04:03 > 0:04:08on Sir Ranulph to see if he can finish his incredible challenge.

0:04:08 > 0:04:12It's that time of the week when we look at all of the weirdest

0:04:12 > 0:04:14news from the past seven days.

0:04:14 > 0:04:19Take it away, Leah.

0:04:19 > 0:04:23It's fast, it's furious, well not really.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25But some say it's thrilling.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27It's the World Snail Racing Championships.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30More than 200 competitors slid to Norfolk to take part,

0:04:30 > 0:04:33including U-slime Bolt.

0:04:33 > 0:04:34Got it?

0:04:34 > 0:04:37This year's winner was Herbie, who was brought from a garden

0:04:37 > 0:04:42in Cambridgeshire and a silver cup filled with lettuce was his prize.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47This woman wants to be a swan.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49Well, she wants to fly with them at least.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52Sacha Dench is going to tag along as they migrate from Russia

0:04:52 > 0:04:56to the UK, using a motor propelled parachute.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58But it's not just for fun.

0:04:58 > 0:05:03She hopes it will help her find out why their numbers are swan diving.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09This restaurant is a pile of poo, quite literally.

0:05:09 > 0:05:13A toilet-themed restaurant has opened in Indonesia

0:05:13 > 0:05:16where you sit on the loo and eat out of toilet pans.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18Gross!

0:05:18 > 0:05:21It's part of a campaign to encourage the use of clean toilets.

0:05:21 > 0:05:26Will it work? We'll just have to wait and W.C.

0:05:28 > 0:05:32Finally, a plane powered only by the sun has taken off

0:05:32 > 0:05:35on the last leg of its historic round the world flight.

0:05:35 > 0:05:39The plane, called Solar Impulse 2, took off over a year ago and last

0:05:39 > 0:05:43night left Cairo to travel back to Abu Dhabi where it all began.

0:05:43 > 0:05:47So far it has travelled 22,000 miles without using a drop of fuel

0:05:47 > 0:05:51except the power from the sun.

0:05:51 > 0:05:52That's all from me.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Newsround's back right here at about 2.15pm.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Bye.
