Nine-year-old completes 24-hour US Navy race

A nine-year-old girl from Florida has become the youngest person ever to complete a 24-hour, 36 mile long US Navy obstacle race.

Her father, Christian Bizzotto said that Milla “comes to the gym” and trains with adults on a regular basis. She wanted to compete in the Battle Frog race after finding the kid’s courses too easy for her ability.

Christian, who is a personal trainer, helped his daughter achieve her goal race, despite thinking that the experience would be a “humbling experience” for her.

Milla, who trains for up to three hours a day, five days a week, came 19th in the women’s elite heat.
