Herron achieved her record-breaking time at the USATF 100 Mile Road Championships in Henderson, Nev. She broke her own record by more than a minute.

Herron, who also holds the Guinness World Record for fastest marathon in a super hero costume, previously attempted to break her own 100-mile record in 2021, but the record was disqualified when it emerged that a measurement error caused the course to fall 716 feet short of 100 miles.
