Mayson Levandoski 24:06 10-20-12 official chip time.
5 kilometers, FYI for those non-metric folks 1k=0.62 miles, so 5k = 3.1 miles
There are no official records kept for the fastest 5k run by a 6-year-old girl as it is not a common distance for children that young to race. It is important for young children to focus on age-appropriate training and activities for their physical development.
