Natalie Cook running 15:25 or whatever is better than a lot of those.

Athing Mu winning the US 600 championship as a high schooler was really impressive.

Ryun's 3:55
Arguably Lex Young's is more impressive than Rupp's as he did it 15 months earlier in his career
Knighton was still in high school (and still is?) when he ran 19.49

Why is Knighton's 19.84 included but not his 19.49. That is by far the most impressive imo.
