Jeffrey Adler also put up an impressive performance, having finished 12 seconds behind Nick and finished in second.
The consistent performances Justin Medeiros produced during each workout justified his reputation. After finishing in 4:46.58 and placing third, Justin immediately increased his lead over the field by 35 points.

Alexis Raptis placed second with a speedy performance that could move the momentum her way in the next two days. She didn’t get off to the best start, so these points were much needed.
