“I ran the Hartshorne Masters Mile Championship at Cornell yesterday [1/18]. I broke the world record. I had hoped to be faster but didn’t run for 3 weeks because of Covid, So now I have the world record for the mile, the 8K and the 12K Hope the snow disappears so I can run in the park.” (More: Facebook, 6ABC)
