Jonny ran at the Central Ohio District Championship Cross Country Meet held at Watkins Memorial High School in Pataskala, OH. The weather was wet and cool with the temperature at 49 degrees. Jonny got himself a good start and again held on throughout the race. He was feeling much better today, compared to the last two weeks were he wasn’t feeling up to par, and proved it with a personal best time of 17:39. He finished 27th out of 155 runners and placed 5th on the Granville Varsity team. The team took 2nd in the Central District and the top 4 teams move on to the Regional Championships next week held in Troy Ohio, located just north of Dayton.
He beat his personal best by 18 seconds. His other times at Watkins this year were 18:24 back on September 7th and 18:00 last week. He looked strong throughout the race and if you look closely on the video as he approached the finish line he has a big smile on his face, because he knew he was going to crush his personal best.
The official Results can be found on Watkins Track website or the Granville Aces Running Database.
