Pont set her personal best (2:27:53) in the classic distance in the 1996 Osaka International Ladies Marathon.[3] Her time from that event was then the second-best Spanish women's marathon time recorded, and it remains the Valencian record.[4] Pont also set the Valencian record for the half-marathon in an event in Barcelona 1996, at 1:12:27,[3] and held it for 22 years until Marta Esteban broke it in 2017.[4]
