Madison Boreman of Cedar Park, Texas ran 5:02 last night at the 4th Annual Schrader 1600. She made an appearance last year on these boards after running a 5:08 at the same meet. Details coming soon

Big deal. With girls this age, it is a wait and see mentality. Puberty usually causes the times to slow until the adjustment is made.
5:02 for 1600 isn't 5:02 for a full mile.
Middle schoolers ran 5:00 in Eugene on Friday.

Was about to post the same thing. This isn't a highly unusual occurance. And it is a wait and see as to if it amounts to anything years from now.

Come on! Whether or not this happens often or if they're unable to maintain this kind of form for years to come doesn't diminish the fact that a 5:00 1600m or mile- thereabouts is very impressive for a girl of this age! I'm a boy and I couldn't get near this at 12.
Great time, but there are probably farmboys who can bench 250 at 12, or soccer players who score 50 goals on other 12 year olds. Bottom line, it's a maturational issue that requires time to play itself out. She could be the next Mary Decker Slaney, or the next . . . what was her name again who ran 5 flat at age 12 . . .
Daesha Rogers ran 4:54 in the 1600 last month at age 11 years old
I like how everyone was saying it was no big deal, but look up "Madie Boreman" now and you'll see she won the Texas State Champs in XC and in the 1600, set the 4A state record and went to Adidas Dream Mile as a freshman age 14 and ran a 4:46 mile.
Lol, yes this should chafe all the idiots here who say kids should not be running or training.
LULZ. How well did she do her sophomore year? She gained about 15 lbs and slowed by about 15 seconds. She sure can talk a big game on Twitter though!

Mari Gibbs ran the same time as a 10 year old in the 70s.
Kiki Lantry ran a 4:54 at the age of 12 in the 70s.
SO WHAT...
There's two 8th grade GIRLS in BIGFORK, MT that are running sub 4:50 for the actual mile. 1609.34meters.
The same middle school. They have been best friends for a long time too.
Annie Hill and Brynn Morley
Madie Boreman today Pac-12 Steeplechase title! I'll say she turned out just fine.

Awesome. Thanks for the follow-up.
Yeah she's where a reasonable person would expect someone with her talent to be at but some think that the progression of girls should be linear and that she'd be running a sub 4:20 mile or something now, based on the fact that she ran 5:08 at 12 years old. Doesn't work that way with girls obviously. She improved 22 seconds since then and hasn't regressed so I'd say she's moving forward not backwards. Anyone who can get a sub 5 mile, male or female, is running faster than 99% of the population anyway.
Her as an 11 year old taking out the pace. She ran a 6:00 mile at age 9.
She looks like she was almost 5 foot 9 by the time she was 11...
Note the racist screaming at 4:27 in the video. It sounded like he yelled Go N word.

Funny post as at the 10th Schrader mile last Saturday another middle schooler ran a 5:00, 1600m. I guess thats a good meet.
What is the threshold that separates a "hobbyjogger" from a "sub-elite" runner?
