Held November 10, it was one of 56 carnival records broken.
The result has been attributed to including a new under-16s age group.
Of the total records broken, 39 were in the other age groups.
Flynn, competing in the under-12 boys section, completed the junior 1500m race in a record smashing time of 5:29.68.
The runner-up, Oliver Hall from Deniliquin, also crossed the line quicker than the previous record.
Deniliquin Athletic Club member Leanne Mulham said while not everyone went home with a medal, there were plenty of personal bests achieved and many new friendships formed.
