Representing the Sandpipers of Nevada, Weinstein clocked a time of 4:29.42 at Sectionals in Justin, Texas. Weinstein&#8217;s performance was just off her personal best, which sits at 4:29.38, posted in late 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Weinstein is one of only six women who have gone faster than 4:30, in a club that also includes Katie Ledecky, Summer McIntosh, Katie Grimes, Bella Sims and Leah Smith.
