NEW YORK -- For the third consecutive year athletes from Scotland won the men's and women's professional divisions of the New Balance Fifth Avenue Mile, held here for the 42nd time.  On the men's side reigning World Athletics 1500m champion Josh Kerr closed his dream 2023 season with a convincing two-second victory, running the fastest winning time at this event in 28 years: 3:47.9.  Reekie, who finished fifth in the recent World Athletics Championships 800m, won for the second time in three years in a more tactical race, clocking 4:19.4.  Both winners splashed their way to victory as the race was held on a wet roadway after several heavy downpours.

With one meet to go before the Diamond League finale, the sport is officially on world record watch in multiple events as the premier tour stops in Brussels for the Allianz Memorial van Damme meeting on Friday.
