I've always liked the 5k at Raleigh Relays, maybe because it's where I pr'd back in the day. But also because the North Carolina March weather can be perfect for distance racing, it's an evening race under the lights, and there is usually a good field. Such was the case on Friday evening when Junior Tamas Kovacs ran to his new pr, High Point's new school record, and his first Regional qualifying mark.
I'm so excited for Tamas because he has been training well and was sick earlier in the week. In this race he made some great moves to stay with the lead pack, and it paid off. Taylor Milne a High Point graduate in 2005(?), and the former High Point record holder (14:03) was also down from Ontario for the 5k. Taylor is a 1500 meter specialist. Watch their post race interview is below.
