He ran around 14.47....the olde record was set in 1975 [yikes!] and was around 15.10...Adian destroyed it. Hope this kid is keeping an eye on his mileage.... burnout not welcome ...sounds like he has tons of potential. BTW: uhhh... not to put too much pressure on him....the world record for the 5K is a few seconds under 13.00. State Open in track will be coming up pretty soon...can he beat the 2 older kids from this race at that point? [/QUOTE]
