Ran the course and know the kid. He is an impressive young runner. Anybody know how this time matches up with national times. 6:09 pace - not bad for the course.

uh... ever heard of Aurora Scott??
That is him running. His performance must be up there for his age group.
http://www.arrs.net/SA_O5K.htmis a list of age performances for 5K outdoor track performance. Any list for age group on roads out there?
Looks like the kid needs a proper pair of shoes.
About 3 minutes faster than my 9-year old, who is the fastest 9-year old around here. However, about 18 months ago, a then 9-year old broke the OK state record for that age with a 19:20 5K. So 19:03 is likely to be one of the best in the country.
