Farrell, who earned Landmark Conference Runner of the Week honors this past Monday for the fifth time this season, broke his own school and Landmark Conference record for an 8,000-meter run with a time of 24:35 at the Princeton Invitational. Farrell was 28th of 272 runners in the race, and surpassed his previous record by nine seconds that he happened to set on the same course a year earlier.
Farrell ranked third among NCAA Division III runners at Princeton, and he finished over 150 spots ahead of the nearest Landmark Conference competitor.
