AIDEN MONISTERE COMES THROUGH THE LINE AFTER A RECORD-BREAKING PERFORMANCE AT HRP!
Thousands of high school distance runners have run at the most popular cross country course in Louisiana--Baton Rouge's Highland Road Park. Nobody has run it faster than Parkview Baptist senior Aiden Monistere, who set the record on Saturday with a time of 14:12.34 on his way to winning to the St. Joseph's Cross Country Invitational.
Monistere broke St. Paul's Eric Coston's record of 4:25 set in 2017.
MileSplit LA's state editor Jerry Byrd interviewed Monistere on Monday afternoon. Among the topics discussed, homecoming fare and music, decisions on shoes, the recruiting process, and, of course, Saturday's record-breaking performance.
