Mary-Ange Brumelot and her father Nicolas ran the fastest combined half marathon time by a parent and child.
“It was a scorcher,” said Nicholas. “But you’ve got to be mentally prepared to come across conditions that you don’t want... mentally you have to overcome all these things and go out and do your job.”
So, they lined up for the 7 a.m. start ready to go. Marie-Ange was used to being in the elite corral and started her race as normal. But for Nicolas, who was placed there by NYRR to assist the record attempt, found himself in unfamiliar territory: “It felt nice, but also awkward, because I knew all the runners around me and behind me would be passing me really quick.” Right after the gun, he moved to the left to get out of the way and run his own race.
