9-month pregnant woman runs 1.6 kms in just over 5 minutes, impresses netizens. Watch
This video was shared on YouTube by the woman’s husband, Michael Myler.
A man named Michael Myler shared an almost one-minute-long recording on his YouTube channel on October 14. The video shows a rather impressive feat by Myler’s wife, named Makenna. According to the text shared alongside the clip, Myler bet his wife a $100 in the second month of her pregnancy that she would be able to run “an 8-minute mile (1.6 km) in her ninth month of pregnancy”. The duo took this bet to the tracks seven months later. The actual time it took Makenna to complete the distance has left netizens impressed.
This clip has been titled, “Makenna Myler Runs a Mile at 9 Months Pregnant - Official Time is Bonkers”. It starts with Myler talking to the camera. It then pans over to the tracks to show Makenna running her laps. She completes the distance in four laps and just a little over five minutes, winning a well-deserving $100 from her husband.
