First of all, Sarah Bowman definitely ran faster than Jordan Hasay. Second of all, you are right that this relay is rarely run, however having four girls average about 4:15 or 4:16 is pretty spectacular. At the professional level, though, it would be cool to see four girls average under 4:10. Jordan Hasay, though, would have been little more than a contributing member of the TN or Georgetown teams, though, so please do not belittle the efforts of these great teams (though Jordan is a great athlete in her own right)!
How is this a world record? Didn't Hasey, a highschooler, run faster than every girl on their team? Funny how the world record couldn't encompass four girls faster than one highschooler. Or maybe it is becuase this race is rarely ran. It was still a good race though.
if this race was a movie, that would be a great tagline for it
