There were a lot of great performances at the Utah Distance Challenge this past weekend. This served as our time trial for the beginning of the season and we still saw a lot of indoor PRs and a lot of good solid races. Here is a recap of how everyone did:
1600m Results:
Brynn Black ran an indoor PR of 5:51 in the mile.
Drake DeHaan (4:44) & Bridger Booth (5:05) ran very solid races after both having not raced in almost 3 months. Ethan Maxfield ran very confident and got a new indoor PR with a 4:52 (he is only 3 seconds away from his outdoor PR)! Spencer Birchum (4:59.35) & Landon Edwards (4:59.88) broke 5 minutes for the first time ever! Dawson Peters (5:08) was only 1 second off his indoor PR and 3 seconds off his outdoor PR after being injured the entire XC season. Ethan Ferre ran a 15 second PR with a 5:09! Isaac Pratt was 4 seconds off his Indoor PR with a 5:15. Joseph Dean ran a 5:31 to beat his previous indoor PR by 5 seconds!
