A video widely shared on Chinese social media shows a woman in her 30s surnamed Liu in Hubei province taking two hours to push a stroller with her 6-month-old son to complete a 13km race on April 6, the South China Morning Post reported.
The video shows Ms. Liu running while pushing a stroller with one hand. Her son lies obediently in the stroller.
Liu is a fitness enthusiast. However, this was her first time running since giving birth. Although running while pushing a stroller was not easy, Liu said she was used to pushing the stroller while walking or jogging.
She said she was worried that the stroller might collide with other runners and injure her son, so she let everyone else run first before she started. Liu completed the race easily, despite stopping twice to feed her son. She said the organizers and volunteers were very supportive as she crossed the finish line. "I was very touched," she said.
Liu's story quickly went viral online. Many people thought she was very brave to join the race. Some netizens commented that Liu must have an admirable way of raising her children.
