What is the school record for the mile in your high school?

If that's true, it's extraterrestrial.

My Texas h.s. record went from 4:30.5 in 1966 to 4:15.0 in 1967 to 4:09.3 in 1973, and there it has remained.

4:12.88

Scott McGowan

Poplar High

Poplar, MT

Scott went on to be the first sub 4 native Montanan ever as a professional.

4:01.x by Gerry Lindgren. Rogers HS in Spokane, WA.

I don't know how someone calls out some of these times, they look pretty standard depending on where you live....

4:17 California (Norcal)

4:01

Ca 1970's

Texas:

Well here are records...

-That shot put natl record (81ft) will never be touched, incredible...

4:17.6 (1983)

Indiana

I don't think anyone's gone under 4:30 at my school in 20 years.

4:12

Eric Post

VA

4:14 - :15, early 80s, at least from what I remembered the AD at my former HS said to me. Northeast L.A. area.

Nearby, Downtown L.A. I believe is 4:09 (Belmont HS) by Roman Gomez.

I went to high school with Greg Anderson at Parkside in Dundas Ontario and he has the school records for 1500 at 3:46 and 3000 at 8:00.2

Those won't be broken ever.

Imagine being the second best guy on the team a full lap behind in a 3000.

4:11

New Jersey

My school actually has about 1200 students......There is about 20-30 kids on the track team. Before my year, the girls record was about 6:15, no body competes in the distance events. There is however semi-talented sprinters and mid-d kids.

Spalding Institute in Peoria, IL (since consolidated) was 4:25 by Steve Lawless in 1983.

Peoria IL - Bergan H.S. (since consolidated with Spalding to form Notre Dame HS)was 4:15 by Eric Volkert in 1981.

Peoria Notre Dame (IL) High School is 4:20.12 in 2002 by Ryan Davis, at State.

Not a single Class or the Open has a time as fast as that.

King went at least that fast, in 1981.

Some fast times recently .... I'd like to know who ran that in 1976
