sjtcaweb

Riley Fayer ran the 3rd-fastest 1,600 by a New Jersey Group 1 runner Wednesday when she placed 4th in a fast Meet of Champions race at Pennsauken.

Fayer ran 4:52.48, lowering her PR from 4:55.96 from the state Group 1 meet last week in Somerset.

Her time is No. 11 on the all-time South Jersey list. Her time is fastest by a South Jersey girl at the Meet of Champions since Haddonfield’s Briana Gess ran 4:48.05 to win the 2015 race at South Plainfield.

Only three other South Jersey girls have run faster at a Meet of Champions: Erin Donohue of Haddonfield, Ocean City’s Renee Tomlin and Washington Township’s Michelle Rowen.

Fayer recorded some wild negative splits, out in 2:30.06 [73.29 / 76.77] but back in 2:22.43 [71.87 / 70.71].
