Keira D’Amato set a new course record to win the women’s race and Conner Mantz defeated a strong men’s field to win the titles at the USATF 20km Road Championships, presented by Toyota, in New Haven, on Monday (5).
In the women’s race, D’Amato crossed the finish line in 1:04:29 to improve the previous course record of 1:05:11, set by Colleen De Reuck in 1998 and win the title and fell just short of her best over the distance, at 1:04:28, set in Hardeeville, South Carolina, last December.
On Monday, Emily Sisson who battled with D’Amato before losing in the end, finished second in 1:04:35, while Nell Rojas and Annie Frisbie who pulled away in the back half of the race, ended strong in third and fourth, respectively with times of 1:07:02 and 1:07:17.
