IAAF doesn't recognize the 10 mile distance as a world record event. However, Mary Keitany ran 50:05 in 2011.

Bawcom Sets American Record at USA 10 Mile Championships
4/6/2014
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Olympian Janet Bawcom broke away from the pack and never looked back, on her way to winning her fourth consecutive USA 10 Mile Championship at the USA 10 Mile Championships Sunday morning, hosted by the Credit Union Cherry Blossom 10 Mile Run.
The USA 10 Mile Championships are the fourth stop on the USA Running Circuit, which concludes this fall with the .US National Road Racing Championships. The top ten finishers at each race on the circuit qualify to compete in the .US National Road Racing Championships.
Bawcom set a torrid pace early, inspired by her runner-up effort at the USA 15 km Championships in March. After winning three USA road titles each in 2012 and 2013, Bawcom clearly wanted to kickstart her 2014 racing season with another big win.
Despite solidifying her top spot well before the finish, Bawcom continued to push the pace over the final stages of the race, crossing the finish 42 seconds ahead of runner-up Sara Hall, while breaking her single-sex American 10 Mile record with ease in a time of 52:12.

not sure she got the record. can this race be considered female only?
Last year's race was started the same way when Janet Bawcom set the Women only start record.
No American Record
David Monti of Race Results Weekly clarified that the course was not record certified:
Is this absurd or am I way off base here? How do we run the US National 10 mile Championship race on a course which isn't certified? Can they go back & certify it tomorrow & then ratify Huddle's record?

Interesting question. Looking at ARRS rankings here:http://more.arrs.net/rankings/Teyiba Erkiso's "world record" performance of 51:43.4 is just 26th best.From here, the 51:43.4 "world record" is actually the 44th best performance (adding several performances "en route" to longer race distances):http://www.alltime-athletics.com/w10milesroad.htmSo why doesn't the ARRS recognize their own faster times in their database as world records?I guess a number of factors to combine to disqualify many women's performances for world record status:- 10 miles is not a common distance, and not officially recognized by the IAAF- courses that are point to point, or not certified, or to much elevation drop, or too much wind, are record ineligible- 10 miles are often "mixed races", run with the men, and "don't count" for "women's only" records

You are confusing "certified" with "record eligible". "Certified" means the course was measured per USATF RRTC standards. "Record eligible" means the course meets additional requirements pertaining to the distance between the start line and finish line and the elevation difference between those points. For US records, the start and finish must be less than 50% of the race distance apart, as the crow flies, or a maximum of 5 miles in this case. And the elevation difference between the start line and finish line must be less than 1m/km (if the start is higher than the finish), or about 16m in this case.
David Monti reported that for the course this race was held on the start and finish are about 7.8 miles apart and the course drops about 30m between those two points. Due to both of those factors, performances at this race are not eligible for record consideration. Still a fantastic performance by Huddle!
Whatever the record situation is, that was one hell of a race by Huddle.
Where are people getting this elevation drop garbage? The finish line is higher than the start by 20-30 ft or so
Not that it matters, but I think they ran this course today (crossed the MS River early in the race):

Great performance but the "separation" (straight line distance between start and finish) is greater then the required 50% - which is enough to prevent a record from being ratified.
Note that she eased up a tiny bit at the line. I guess it's unlikely anyone else will ever Infeld her again, so maybe it's not worth worrying about.

I got it from Monti's tweet, he's normally extremely reliable. I have not actually seen a course elevation profile. If the finish is higher than the start, it still wouldn't matter if the start line and finish line are more than 5 miles apart. Both provisions of the rules need to be in place to allow performances at a race to be eligible for US records.
I am aware of the rule, but can someone explain why the 50% separation rule exists?
