Todd Tops Personal Best in North Carolina
Highland Park rising senior Philip Todd clocked a personal record time of 4:23.38 in the Emerging Elite Mile at the New Balance Nationals High School Championship last Friday in Greensboro, NC.
Todd finished almost a full three seconds faster than his 1,600-meter time at the state meet in Austin more than a month ago. Todd finished 12th out of 36 competitors in the event and was one of the top finishing rising seniors running against several high school graduates.
Congratulations! A great achievement. Hope it wasn’t ridiculously hot and humid for the race. I’ve been to Greensboro in the summer and it was like a sauna.
