PSU Is 1000 U?
With Danae Rivers' first meet of the Indoor Season, Penn State became the holder of both Collegiate Records in the 1000M run. Previously, Brannon Kidder achieved the title for the Men with his 2:18.26 in 2016. The record still stands.
Danae's record eclipsed the previous mark by more than 2 seconds with 2:38.58.
(In addition, Ryan Foster still holds the Australian National record for the event.)
Danae's strong performance during the XC season seems to indicate that even more wonderful things are in the works. The combination of raw speed, increased endurance, and tactical experience are combining to make for an interesting future for Danae and all of us watching.
