Dan Nehnevaj made the trip to Nazareth University in Rochester, NY to compete in an attempt to get new US and World Records at the rarely contested 2 Mile distance. The 3 ahead of him the start were Olympians Evan Dunfee (CAN), Nick Christie (US) and Perseus Karlstrom (SWE). Mid race, Dan moved into 2nd behind Karlstrom, only to be passed late by Dunfee and finish 3rd overall, setting a new US Record of 12:03.31 in the process.
