Categories: W = World; A or Am = American; C = Collegiate (NCAA Div. I only); JC = Junior College; J = Junior (U20); Y = Youth (U18); HS = High School.

Codings:
+ = event not officially recognized by governing body;
‘ = student not eligible to represent the U.S. internationally;
i = mark made indoors;
l-a = low-altitude;
w-o = women only race;
¶ = conditions for ratification not suitable;
§ = mark inferior to official WA record which T&FN doesn’t recognize;
# = suspended for positive drug test.
