In the video below, you can hear commentator and Speed River Track and Field Club coach Dave Scott-Thomas tell the crowd that Taylor Milne would have to pick up the pace to break the record, and Milne did not disappoint.
Exactly 2 seconds were knocked off of the previous 2,000 metre Canadian record at the Speed River Inferno on Saturday night. Milne finished the race in 5:01.57, beating the record of 5:03.57 set by Steve Agar in 1997.
