Kastor in record breaking form

2005-09-20

Olympic marathon bronze medallist Deena Kastor was in record breaking form when winning the Jefferson Hospital Distance Run in Philadelphia. Kastor in perfect conditions, smashed the 21-year-old American half marathon record with a winning time of 1:07:53. That bettered by 41 seconds the previous US mark for the 13.1 miles distance achieved by Joan Benoit and also lowered the course record of 1:08:30 set by Kenya's Catherine Ndereba four years ago.
