Madison Faust set a world record this month when she ran the fastest mile by a woman wearing a full explosive ordnance disposal bomb suit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the time reading 10:19, Faust, a platoon leader with the 55th Explosive Ordnance Disposal Company at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, crossed the finish line wearing the Army\u2019s newest suit, a 48-pound prototype developed by Program Executive Officer Soldier, according to a service release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Faust broke the previous record that was set in April 2021 by Capt. Kaitlyn Hernandez, commander of the 717th Ordnance Company and 52nd EOD. Hernandez finished the mile in 10:23 wearing an older version of the EOD suit, which, with the helmet, weighed 96 pounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Running alongside Faust and pacing her throughout the duration of the run was her commander, Capt. John Morrissey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSoldiers must be willing to do hard things and set goals that scare us,\u201d Morrissey said in a release. \u201cFaust has exemplified this in her pursuit of this record and therefore set an example for the entirety of the EOD career field and U.S. Army.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Faust\u2019s unit began to test the latest chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, explosives command, or CBRNE, suit technology a few months ago, according to the release. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Pennsylvania native expressed being impressed by the improved mobility the advanced bomb suits offered, which led to leadership encouraging her to attempt a new world record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1330\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/9400877.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-109792\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/9400877.jpg.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/9400877.jpg.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/9400877.jpg.jpg?resize=768,511 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/9400877.jpg.jpg?resize=1024,681 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/9400877.jpg.jpg?resize=1536,1021 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Faust, in the bomb suit, approaches the finish line. (Sgt. 1st Class Luis Paredes\/Army)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Faust, who played soccer at West point, said she prepared for the run by training with her commander and one of her soldiers \u2014 and with \u201clots of carbs before the runs,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Morrissey noted that \u201cthere were some hard and demoralizing days. But she kept showing up, she kept putting the suit on and that unwillingness to quit is what got her the record.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Faust\u2019s unit, the 55th EOD Company, conducts bomb disposal response missions across parts of Washington D.C., Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mission success in the field requires continually upgrading gear to improve safety and mobility \u2014 and training soldiers willing to run toward explosives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are a volunteer-only MOS and therefore, are made up of only those who freely made the choice to put themselves in hazardous situations for the sake of others,\u201d Morrissey said in the release. \u201cEOD attracts those who are methodical and solution-oriented when faced with unprecedented situations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur aim with pursuing this record is for it to inspire other EOD technicians to challenge themselves.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Army Capt. Travis G. Chewning-Kulick set the men\u2019s world record this year in April while running a 7:04 mile in a 62-pound bomb suit at Fort Cavazos, Texas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wearing a 48-pound prototype suit, the former West Point soccer player crossed the finish line with the watch reading 10:19.
