  • whats the United States national cross country record?

  • I don't think there is a record because every course is so different. Not all courses are 5K, and even those which are, often are not measured accurately.

    Having said that, people do talk about records for the marathon, even though the courses for that are also quite different (the distance is always the same).

    The fastest time this year (2009) is listed as 14:42. German's time in this race was 14:24, a HUGE difference. I've never seen anything like what he did that day.

  • Damn, 9:06 two mile-Chris Derrick, meet your competition.

  • Look him up (German Fernandez) on Wikipedia. This guy has his own page. Wow!

  • god in my state people are amazing if they get low 16's...wow

  • @BlueEliminator1 If your question hasn't been answered yet. I believe it's Dathan Ritzenhein with a 14:04. But there maybe a sub 14 I don't know about

  • Effortless.

    Compare his form to the guys behind him.

  • @Traviskula Milespit.com

  • i still say chris derik beat him cuz 4 some reason every year Illinois always has like 1st in nation

  • national record is 14:22 but its a course with a bunch of hills

  • Hey johnmeyer, where did you find that info on the fastest time this year, is there a website with the running best times of the year. (no pun intended)

  • Aw man, that's not even fun. I'm glad Wisconsin's top 50 are concentrated and everyone has a chance of winning. What's the fun when somebody's 2nd mile mark is 9 minutes?
