I would check your teams here. I doubt that Bethel women's best 6k is a 27:43. Their best is most likely around 22:XX.
ReplyDeleteThe link for the results is in the story. That's the time and distance listed. It may be a tough/muddy course or the measurements are off. The men's 8K winning time was almost 27 minutes, so all the times were "slow" by most standards, but it is cross country where time really doesn't matter as much because there can be many variables that impact how fast one can go.
ReplyDeleteStill not Bethel. They weren't even at that meet. Maybe Bethany? Bethel had a different meet that day.
