From her dad Niels “Hanne went straight to the back of the pack not worrying about wave lights. She was feeling relaxed but got boxed in and did not start to move up until 600 to go.”
Thomsen was well back in 11th place at the mile in 5:04.34 before over taking the entire field minus the winner running her second mile in 5:02.72.
Hanne Thomsen interview
Thomsen also broke the Empire’s indoor 2 mile record held by Sara Bei of Montgomery from 1999 in 10:25.07 at National Scholastic, Boston.
That was a National Sophomore record at the time.
The winner of this years meet was Ellie Shea of Massachusetts who became only the fourth High School runner to ever break 9:50 indoors at 9:49.82.
Last year in the same meet she broke the national indoor sophomore record running 9:52.35.
Thomsen’s time ranks 22nd all-time in the US and is the fourth fastest ever by a sophomore. Thomsen’s time is now the new California state record.
An official time was taken at the 3,000 meter mark giving her more records.
Thomsen crossed the 3000 mark at 9:28.85 setting another Empire indoor record.
Outdoors only Santa Rosa’s Julia Stamps has run faster at 9:19.63 in 1996.
