Eating lunch and looking at the WR progression lists, and started to realize that a Kenyan Woman has never held a record at any distance from 800M through 10000M. Specifically 800, 1000, 1500, Mile, 3000, 5000, and 10000.
Thinking about it after the fact, I guess it makes sense when you consider that Kenyan Women do not have a long history of competing at the top level, and that the Chinese women from the early 90s put the records way out there.
However, without looking it up first, I would not have bet money on this fact. I would have thought at least once at some distance it has happened!
Also, and American Man has never held the 3000, 5000 or 10000 WR.
