Tania resets 10,000m record, NMI now has most gold medals in any Micro Games ever

MAJURO, Marshall Islands—Tania Tan broke the Micronesian Games’ 10,000m record this morning at the Majuro Track and Field Stadium in the continuation of the 2024 Micronesian Games.

Team Marianas also topped Guam’s record for most gold medals won in any single Micronesian Games after bringing its total up to 59. Guam’s previous record was 56 gold medals made in 1994 when it hosted the third edition of the Micro Games.

The CNMI bagged five gold medals Friday and another gold from Tan today to set the new Micro Games record and keep the lead in the medal standings, going into the last three days of the competition in the Marshall Islands.
