High School Running

Don't think there was any other comment on this, but Sarah Robinson of Gunn High School in Palo Alto, CA ran 10:16.98 in the 3200 at the "Top 8" meet in Los Gatos Friday night. All the more impressive was that she wasn't pushed (winning by 40 seconds). I don't know all the details, but I know she's an incredible soccer player who plays (or has played) on the US junior national team and I believe has committed to play soccer at Stanford. I'm not sure if she's planning on running at Stanford too...anybody know?

Either way, an impressive run and another Northern California girl (sectional rival of Anna Maxwell's) in the national picture!

Here's the link to the results:

re: Stanford fan

Justin Robison, a sophomore from Lynbrook had a great double at that meet:

4:16 1600

9:27 3200

Won both in record (for frosh-soph) times. Curious why he didn't run with the big boys.

re: Big kick

Robinson is the real deal in both sports. I hate soccer!

In the 2013 Central Coast CIF sectional 1600 final:

1. 11 Anna Maxwell 4:42.57a San Lorenzo Valley

2. 12 Nikki Hiltz 4:44.93a Aptos

3. 11 Sarah Robinson 4:48.41a Henry M. Gunn

4. 11 Clare Peabody 4:53.68a Aptos

In the 2013 CIF State 1600 Finals:

1. 11 Anna Maxwell 4:47.33a San Lorenzo Valley

2. 12 Nikki Hiltz 4:48.07a Aptos

3. 11 Sarah Robinson 4:48.37a Henry M. Gunn

While Sarah ran her 10:16.98, Clare Peabody ran 4:56.69 at the same meet.

Even with Nikki Hiltz at Oregon, the CCS will most likely send a strong contingent of 1600/3200 runners to the state meet.

re: DedicateRunner

I heard it's going to be futbol. But you can't do both so the answer is No.

re: Stanford fan

Judging from her flotrack interview it does not seem she will be running at Stanford.
