February 2016 - World Record Stroller Half Marathon run by Cal and Holland Neff

Today is Friday, February 27th, 2026 and at the Katy Half Marathon this month in 2016, Calum Neff bested by more than 2 minutes the Guinness World Record for the fastest half marathon while pushing a stroller, in what would be only the first of many such feats.   I’m excited to share my interview with Cal, current world record holder in 3 stroller-race distances and Canadian national record-holder in the men’s 50km, as well as a father of 4 – soon to be 5 – children.   It is #FueledFriday, which mean's that today's episode is sponsored by Fuel Goods!
