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

I never knew Culpeppar ran 4:03 for the mile in High School, I did know that he ran 3:50 for 1500 however. From the mid 1980's through the late 1990's the top mile times I recall were in the 4:01-4:04 range by John Quade, Chris Lewis, Michael Stember, Gabe Jennings, Jonathon Riley, and Sharif Karie. Jason Pyrah might have run 4:04.

Don't recall Culpeppar. I wonder what race that was.

4:09 Ohio

from Texas all-time 1600 list:

#65 4:12.34 Alan Culpepper, El Paso Coronado, 5/12/90 (Jr). Was state 5A win.

Soph, ‘89 state 5A win in 4:20.5.

Sr, 3:50.05 1500 in ‘91.

I call BS on nearly half of these times. Is anyone else with me? Looks like a lot of old men with fuzzy memories. Like when my Dad told me he ran 43 for the 440 when he was in high school.

Since you responded to my post: the 4:11 school record was good for second place in the NY state meet in '76. Same guy won the state meet in '77 in 4:12 as a senior. Ran his 3:48 1500 in the semi of the junior nats in Knoxville that year.

Was it Ross Donoghue? It wasn't Draddy - he was in '79 and ran 3:44 for 1500. kevin Bryne was from NJ as was Roger Jones who won the GWI in 1977. I'm drawing a blank on this one.

Steve Francis from Arlinton HS

4:15.2 in 1973.

My record still stands. Two people came close, really close.

Roseburg Oregon

I think a guy named John Rodgers in maybe 1974 4:09 something?

It's a big high school but I dont think anyone has been within 10 seconds of that since the mid eighties.

My guess for the girls would be Debbie Brundage Eide in about 1972

Whatever Pre ran in high school. I do know his 800 record is 153 something.

Where did you find that Texas All Time 1600 list and is there one for the 3200 meter run?

4:09, Washington State

4.01 - Hutt Valley High School, Wellington, New Zealand.

4:17.1, WA

Kid a few years ago ran 4:18.0 as a junior but never did get it.

Which PA high school? North Allegheny perhaps? Jerry Richey is the record holder if so!

I thought Richey ran under 4:10, maybe 4:08. I could be wrong, or maybe thinking of it as a 1600.[/quote]
