A tale of two track meets. Less than ten minutes after Bernard Lagat made Galen Rupp’s 5,000m AR a memory, Galen Rupp took Bernard Lagat’s AR in the two mile! Running well, Galen Rupp clipped just under two seconds off the American AR, with his fine 8:09.72! Galen ran the record at the USATF Classic, in Fayetteville, Arkansas on February 11, 2012.

Galen Rupp also as the American record for 10,000m, 26:48.00, which he set last summer. A fun night, with Lagat running at Millrose Games in NY and Rupp running at the USATF Classic in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

More details to come!

Of RunBlogRun, his daily pilgrimage with the sport, Larry says: "I have to admit, I love traveling to far away meets, writing about the sport I love, and the athletes I respect, for my readers at runblogrun.com, the most of anything I have ever done, except, maybe running itself."

    Theme song: Greg Allman, " I'm no Angel."
