I don't push my 12-year-old son to do anything, but he can run 5 miles without breaking a sweat faster than I can keep up. Is it possible that you are making too much of one the best 13-year-olds in the world maxing out at 45 miles?

This years NCAA XC champion, Karissa Schweizer ran a 5k as a 12yr old and another as a 13yr old. Those times were 25:42 and 21:54 respectively. She was a 2:12 800m runner her senior year on less than 40 miles per week.
How many miles per week was Jordan Hasay running when she was the phenom du jour?
Yea for world records!!!!!!!!!

Did you guys see in the results there were tons of other Ping's from salt late in the results too
Asian Mormons or something? An 8 year old male ping from SL went 18:13 to his 11 year old (sister/wife?) in 18:21, that must have been cool
I think there were 3-7 Ping's from SL in the results when I glanced at it, apparently the entire family is into running
Tons of other Ping's what?

"Go back to the Hasay threads from when she was that age. 10-12 years later and she is still one of the top runners in the country."
Since when?

Qualifying for the Olympic Trials is sufficient.

Qualifying to try to be one of the top runners does not a top runner make.

Do your research buddy. Look at the Regional qualifying times for the upcoming JO XC Championships on December 10th.
24 girls ran qualifying times faster than Miss Ping including a girl close to 12 minutes for 4km.
There are tons of fast young girls out there but 99% will be out of the sport before they finish high school
I call BS I don't know any kids who don't train who can run 5 miles. My kids are trained and are two of the top mid distance runners in the US and they definitely sweat on easy long runs. Like I said, I call bs unless you are walking and he barely beats you.

You're delusional to keep bringing those times up.

Thanks for the link. Just coincidental, but Pearson has the same ragged running style as Hunter.

Imagine sprinting to the line and discovering you still had 1.5 miles to go! Biggest finish misjudgement ever?
To her credit she held off the others for 2nd.

Delusional?
How so the numbers are factual and indicate the times run to qualify for the national championship.
Do I need to send you the link or can you find it all by yourself on
