Her time of 48:03 was her second US Record at the distance in the last month, breaking her previous time of 48:15 set on 4/3 in Hauppauge, NY.

It's actually more like being the world's 100th tallest midget. And I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize to my friends in Jupiter, FL who are 3 feet tall.
