100 women race in Hamilton to win back a world record for 1-mile relay

In 1999, Paula Schnurr and Patti Moore were part of a group in Toronto that ran to set a Guinness World Record for the fastest time in which 100 women ran a one-mile relay. That record stood for 24 years until an American team beat it by five minutes last year. On Sunday, 100 women in Hamilton won in back, they say.
