An Arkansas mom of three is expected to become a world record holder after running a half marathon in 1 hour, 21 minutes and 23 seconds—while pushing her youngest daughter in a stroller.
An Arkansas mom of three is expected to become a world record holder after running a half marathon in 1 hour, 21 minutes and 23 seconds.
Webb had her husband, a running coach at the University of Arkansas, take photos and videos of her throughout the half-marathon in order to provide evidence to Guinness World Records that she ran the whole Route 66 race with a stroller. Webb, a collegiate runner, suffered an injury when she was pregnant with her oldest daughter and wasn't sure if she would be able to keep running at a competitive level. She did recover and then began to train with her daughter in her stroller, a tradition she continued with her next two children.
"Some women might fear that if they have children it will hinder their ability to accomplish goals, but I really believe if it’s something you love to do you can involve your whole family in it," she said."If I didn’t have running I wouldn’t be as good of a mom. The more I compete, the more joy I get and the more joy it brings to my children."
