Sheila Reid Close to PR at New York adidas Grand Prix 1500

Sheila Reid came 6th tonight in New York over 1500 meters in a season's best 4:07.47 (her PR over that distance is 4:07.07 from July 2012).   Reid bested several international stalwarts, such as Morgan Uceny and Canadian Hilary Stellingwerff, in running her #2 time over 1500 meters.  As the above video shows, Reid led at the bell but was not able to live with the finishing pace of several runners and came sixth.
