Aidan Puffer broke the world 5k record clocking 15:47 for 13 year-olds
A 13-year-old youngster from Manchester (United Kingdom), accustomed to youth records, showed himself on Saturday in Boston, as part of the B.A.A. 5K through the streets of Boston, two days before the Boston Marathon. His time is amazing: 15:47! This is the world record in this category. Aidan Puffer started running at age 10 and in just three years he managed to do 4:18 in 1500 meters, 9:22 in 3000 and now 15:47 in 5000. This young athlete has as idol one of the most great of history. "My idol is Mo Farah, but I still do not have his autograph," says Aidan Puffer. In a typical week, Aidan runs 40 miles over six days, with one day of cross-training (35 minutes on the elliptical). If he does a long run on the weekends, his dad will often ride a bike alongside him. (04/16/2018) Views: 2,494 ⚡AMP
