Karissa Schweizzer Outkicks Shelby Houlihan for 8:25 AMERICAN RECORD as they and Quigley break old American record

Wow! I thought Houlihan was unbeatable against other Americans but it appears she is mortal.

In a race/meet that you didn’t even have a preview or write-up for.

YEAH, MF Karissa! Love her!

Quigley beat her last year.

What meet was this?

Why didn't they run the 5k with KK?

Congrats to all. Fast times

She loses to other Americans quite frequently.

Frequently? How many Americans have beat her in the last two years?

Holy crap that is fast. Congrats to all top 3

What's there to report? BTC women running against BTC women. I mean, it's awesome that they're fast but i wish they'd run against more competition than just themselves...

Wow!

Go, Karissa Schweizer! Fastest indoor 3000 ever by a non-Ethiopian woman.

You mean, something like usatf indoors where they took the top 3 places in the 3k? Or the 4 btc women in the 5k tonight?

Something like that?

They should have all run the 5K. What was the point of this 3k?

This is just like that silly men's 5000m at Nike last fall.

In fact, yea. That's a lot more exciting than super fast curated time trials against your teammates.
