Abigail Barlow of American Fork ran a career-best in the 5000m at the Garmin RunningLane Championships in a time of 17:16 which will be the fastest mark by a senior girl to end the 2021 XC season. Barlow has dipped under 18 before when she ran 17:56 at the Utah State XC Championships and finished 5th overall in that race. Addi Bruening of Herriman finished the year with the fastest 5000m performance on Utah soil with her 17:28 time also coming from the State meet. A grand total of six senior girls broke the 18-minute barrier this season. How many will break 18 in 2022?
