8-year-old with sights on Olympics - running 5k in record 20 MINS
  • 5 years ago
Sporty Gabrielle Hall took part in the 5k park run and achieved the incredible
time of 20 minutes and 30 seconds.

The youngster broke the age grade record in the run and, despite beating her
granddad and training partner's personal best, stills feels she could have been
faster.
Proud Mum Jenni said: "The previous record held by someone her age was 20
minutes and 42 seconds.
"Gabrielle was running up hills and inclines and when she finished she said she
could have gone faster.

"She has a watch and times herself. All of the family go along to watch her and
cheer her on.

"She has been desperate to break the age grade record at the park, and when she
passed us she said ‘mum I’m going to do it’.
