Katelyn Tuohy could easily break the NCAA 10k record

You run the 5K 10K outdoors go for the records and go for both championships

Then skip the world championships. No one cares and she's not ready anyway. Then come back strong for cross country and then redshirt the rest of the season and prep for the Olympics. Then come back after the Olympics and finish up rewriting the record book

I like this a lot. It's funny I was kind of thinking she should focus on the speed but the 5K 10K double would be a great storyline and those are two records which are within reach....

Henes ran some fast 5K 10K times recently and she's pretty much right with her so... I hope you're right and she does it...

For someone who reportedly runs 70 miles per week, the 10k record should be the easier record to break than the sub 15 5k.

Tuohy is a second slower than Monson at the mile, technically ran 4:23 too but for 6 meters less.

Tuohy is ten seconds slower than Monson at 3k.

So if we compute it like a dumb track fan like me, if Monson can run 30:03 10k then Tuohy is possibly in 30:40s - 30:50s form right now.

The NCAA record is 31:18 for the 10k. No collegiate runner has gone sub 31 in the 10k. Tuohy could be the first, just like the sub 4:25 mile.

what is this all about??? are these thoughts after the ten meet ??

anyways i agree with breaking ncaa records but i dont think katelyn likes the 10k, pretty sure she would rather try to break the 1500m than the 10k ..thats fo sure

altho it would be epic if she runs her first and ONLY 10k ncaa race just to break the ncaa record

It is so obvious wrote:

And everyone knows what is going on.
