Hannah Gapes gets yet another massive PR in the 1500m in 4:07.44! Every race she runs she is setting a new PR. In early April she sets a 5 sec PR in 4:11.37 (prev Pr was 4:16.87). At the outdoor nationals last weekend, she set a 13 sec PR in the 5k in 15:25.93.

The race start couldn't have gone worst for her, As soon as the gun went off, Hannah got boxed in on the rail and immediately was in last place and already 1 secs behind. She worked her way all the way to 4th place. Incredible comeback. Congrats.

(Note: the timing site says 4:07.44 is Division 1 #13 best time)
