Track Team to Challenge Four-Mile Relay Records at Twilight Meet
EUGENE, Ore. -- Oregon will attempt to break the collegiate and American records in the four-mile relay at the Twilight Meet on May 9, Associate Athletic Director Vin Lananna announced.
The Ducks will be joined by a team from Oregon Track Club Elite, among others, in an effort to break Michigan’s 2005 collegiate mark of 16:04.54 (Andrew Ellerton, Mike Woods, Nick Willis, Nate Brannen), and the American record of 16:08.54, set by Athletics West (Dan Aldridge, Doug Padilla, Tom Smith, Chuck Aragon) at Hayward Field in 1984.
Oregon’s pool of milers includes Galen Rupp, Matthew Centrowitz, Andrew Wheating, Shadrack Biwott, Scott Wall and James Withers.
The world four-mile record, 15:49.08, was set by Ireland in 1985.
