She’s done it again, with an assist from the kids

AnnMarie Cody, BAERI Research Scientist in the Kepler/K2 Mission, competed in the 36th Wildflower Run held in Morgan Hill, CA, on March 31.  With her triplets in their 3-seat stroller in front, she set a new Guinness Book world record by finishing the race in 47 minutes, 10 seconds, over a 6 mile course.*

Cody’s other titles include:

• Fastest 10K pushing a Triple Pram (Female);
• World record holder for the Triple Pram Marathon; and
• One-time Half-Marathon world record holder.

Cody’s scientific interests include research into young stars and the formation of planets.  Her research involves high-precision optical and infrared photometry and spectroscopy. She is responsible for managing Kepler’s public data products and creating cartoons depicting the observatory’s astronomical targets.
