June 27th at the Bob Shor Summer Track Series meet at Montgomery High Ashlin Mallon turned in an incredible mile time.
Ashlin has just finished the 8th grade.
Her 4:57.1 mile time in the race has only been bettered by four Redwood Empire NINTH GRADERS in our history.
To clarify the time it was a 4:57.03 hand time. Since this was not a CIF meet it is listed in the official results as 4:57.0 but by CIF rules it would be 4:57.1.
