Lauren Scott was agonisingly close to breaking 10 minutes for 3k when falling in the final straight of the Iowa State Classic 3000m women’s A race. Lauren had hung on to a group running 9:45-47 pace for most of the race until struggling in the last 70m when a stumble to the floor cost an otherwise safe 9:55 at least – having to settle for a 10:00.05 pb.
