On Friday October 2 Tayler Hays ran into new personal records at the Thornton Invite. Every meet that the runners compete in are 3.1 miles or a 5k. Hays had a prior personal record of 21:50 and beat that record at the Thornton Invite with a time of 21:01. This personal record gives her a better chance to make it to state this year. As an individual it will give her a great chance to do well at state. After she was done she had emotions flowing through her body. “After I was done I was really tired and was really happy I took almost a minute off my time.”
