Molly Huddle broke Shalane Flanagans’ AR by .04 of a second, in the 5,000 meter
race in Brussels last Friday evening. Photographer Victah Sailer sent us a text that
he shot pictures of Molly, then, not knowing she had set the AR, rushed over to the
DL press conference. It was only on the way back to the hotel, on the bus, that Molly
and her agent quietly told Victah that Molly had set the 5,000 meter AR! ” I would have
never known, Molly was so quiet…” . Congrats to Molly Huddle who set prs in the 5,000
meters two separate times, dropping 34 seconds this season (from 15:17 to 14:44.76)!
Huddle named
USATF Athlete of the Week
