Big PB for Sara Vaughn….4:08.74!

Sara just finished racing the 1500m at the Vancouver Sun Harry Jerome Track Classic in Canada, and absolutely nailed it. She took almost three seconds off her PB with a 4:08.74 (preliminary result) for 3rd place. “I felt really, really good. I thought if I got under 4:10 today, I’d be happy, but now I want to find another race. I was a bit conservative, and the third lap was a bit slow. I wanted to go with 500m left, but got a little boxed in. From 300m out I was able to go, and I hit about 62 seconds for the final 400m! I think I can get to 4:05 if we can find a meet over in Europe quickly.”

Since returning from last year’s maternity leave, Sara has now run PBs this year for the indoor 1500m (4:20.52), 800m (2:03.70), and now today’s awesome effort. Great job!!!
