Vote for our own Ryder Mold who is up for the boys Runner of the Week honors from Mile Split MN.
Mold ran a Minnesota 7th-grade class-best time of 18:40.80 at the Becker Invitational. Mold finished 2nd overall in the boy's JV race, but his time would've placed him 14th in the varsity race. In both of his 5Ks this season, Ryder has run under 20 minutes at both meets. Nationally Mold ranks #23 for the Class of 2029.
