The JFK Observer, Armory Track: Breeda Mannion Races to a Kennedy Catholic School Record in the Steeplechase at Leagues

We always knew she could run. Then last year, we found out that she could hurdle. Lately, she’s been rumored to skip across puddles following a storm.

Today, she put it all together. Breeda was seen to run, jump, hurdle and even splish & splash through small ponds of water in Dover, New York.

All she really needed was some competition and a course. Dover and the league meet organizers provided the course. Sami Jorgenson (2nd at Loucks) of Pawling provided the competition.

The result was that the comeback kid came back today. She ran 8:02 to set a new JFK School record in the Steeplechase!
