A few months ago, 29-year-old Marie-Ange Brumelotâs husband discovered a unique world record: fastest half marathon run by a parent and child. The current record stood at 2:58:35, set by Jonathan Scott and Clare Bovill of the United Kingdom on March 8, 2020. Marie-Ange was already an elite runner. She finished as the 20th overall woman at the 2019 Chicago Marathon in a time of 2:36:23 and was even chosen to represent France in the 2020 half marathon world championships. Her father, 60-year-old Nicolas Brumelot, also runs. Heâs finished numerous marathons and ultramarathons, but only one halfâa 1:32:04 time from the Paris Half Marathon on March 6 this year. Marie-Ange ran her personal best of 1:14:18 at the 2020 Houston Half Marathon, so she told Runnerâs World she had no doubts they could break the record if they went for it. She already planned on racing the Brooklyn Half Marathon, so she contacted the New York Road Runners (NYRR), who were happy to host the record attempt.
