High School Records—Girls
High School Records are those ratified by the T&FN Records Committee
We consider the season to go through August 31 of an athlete's senior year, but we have appended a section noting the best marks made in high school-only competition.
Symbols:
(A) = mark made at over 1000m of altitude (in affected events only)
y = race run at yard distance
i = made indoors
