New World Record

Well, he was true to his word as he said all week he would break the record, and he did. Desiree Davila was 5th in her comeback race in a time of 2:29.

And good job, Desi!

Not really, either they break 2 hours soon enough or I live forever. The possibility is infinity.Nick Morris wrote:That would be insane!!Jerry wrote:Maybe I will see 1:59:xx in my life time indeed.
