Colts Neck distance star Jordan Brannan took the one card running 14:22 breaking the course record, a distance just under three miles long. Brannan wasn't the only one running quick today, the top four finishers all would have broken or tied the record as well set back in 1999 at 14:38 by Brian Kerwin.
