In the last two Olympics, Devon Allen has made quite a name for himself. However, what he did today in the 110m hurdles at Penn relays was simply out of the world. As he added another record to his name, he kept on running even when he crossed the finish line. What he missed at the Tokyo Games, he replaced it with a sensational victory at Penn relays.

In the Tokyo Olympics, he missed a podium finish by four-hundredths of a second. However, this time, he was in no mood to repeat any of his previous mistakes. He simply proved why he is the best in the business. Furthermore, before switching to his childhood dream, he made sure the world remembered him as an ace hurdler as well.

Devon Allen sets a record at Penn relays

It was the best ever performance that the two-time Olympian showcased at the Penn relays. Devon finished the 110m hurdles in a record 13.11 seconds. With this, he overcame his own record of 13.27 seconds in Hurricane Alumni Invitational in Miami-Dade, Fla on April 2nd.
