Don’t let The TEN’s small-town venue fool you. Last year, the event hosted some of the fiercest competitors in the running universe, who took home many national records. Some highlights: Elise Cranny narrowly missed the U.S. women’s record in the 10,000-meter race, while Grant Fisher broke the American record. Jack Raynor and Andy Butchart also took home national records (in Scotland and Australia, respectively).
This year’s The TEN, sponsored by On, promises to be an equally exciting race, so consider your Saturday night plans sorted.

A chance for American records in the 10K for men and women
Woody Kincaid and Alicia Monson stand a chance of running American 10K records this weekend. Kincaid, a 2021 Olympian in the 10,000 and 5,000 meters, set an American indoor record for the 5,000 meters at the Boston University Terrier Invitational in January and could be after Fisher’s 2022 record. Monson, meanwhile, will arrive at the starting line with a shiny-new 3,000-meter record from February’s Millrose Games. Needless to say: Both of their races are worth watching.
The world 10K events capping the race will be a chance for many national records
As Sound Running notes in an Instagram post, several men’s national 10K records are up for grabs—including the Canadian, Chinese, German, Guatemalan, Japanese, South African, and Swiss records.
