RECORD BOARD This spreadsheet lists our top performers at official races from the mile* to the marathon! The requirements for being on the list are that you are a current member of the club when the race is run and that it is a sanctioned race (i.e. verifiable results). We list top performers, not performances, so each person will only have their top time for a given event. If you are a member of the team and have a time that you believe belongs on the record board please send an email! *Nearly all mile records are from a downhill mile
