My 10000 on the track is 31:00.3, run in the mid 80's. I couldn't have found .4?!! On the road the best I ever did was 31:35.
Don't feel bad aboutnot breaking 31. In the year 2015, at Stanford under the lights, that's a 29:59.

Mile - 4:00.00
Ran exactly one 3 mile race in my youth. It was 15:12 in the heat and humidity. Couldn't wrap my head around the marathon times of that era. Happy to have this memory tho.

I don't have one oh-so-close, but I have a 15:12 5k that I tried for a couple years to get to sub 15. I also tried a few times to get a 2:35 marathon down to sub 2:30. And those aren't really even the agonizingly close type of PRs I'm thinking talking about.

800 - 2:00.2
1500 - 3:51
3000 - 8:03
5000 - 14:02 (and a 14:02, 14:03)
10000 - 29:00.2
8k (road) - 23:08
10 miler - 50:03 (and a 50:04)
You ran 29:0 and 14:02 but can't break 2:00, when was the last time you ran an 800? I find that hard to believe. I mean most 5k/10k guys never run it. So is the 800 pb from HS or something?
My freshman year I ran 20:20 in the 5k (slow, I know I sucked.) Anyways I trained like an animal for the next year and everyone laughed when I told the team I would break 18 my sophomore year. Ended up running 18:00.00 the last race of the year. fml
I've got a 50:02 for 10miles and 14:00.55 for 5000. I had a range of 30:0x for clockings for 10k too until I did the job properly with a 29:19.
The stars did align occasionally though - sneaked just under 8 for 3000m and under 3:45 (60 sec laps) for 1500.
