  1. Congratulations to Fiona, Cate, Philip and Cooper.
    I am curious what are the course records for the Stanford course? Phillip and Fiona posted some amazing times!

  2. The course changed after German Fernandez ran an epic 14:42 in 2008 on a previous version of the course that incorporated a pretty substantial hill. While the new course is certainly easier, Rocha's time is the fastest ever run there by a high school athlete. I couldn't find records of the women's times more than a couple of years back, but O'Keeffe's time was her fastest yet and the fastest 5k in the nation this year.

  3. Kudos to Phillip, Cooper, Fiona, and Cate for their very impressive performances!
    I'm interested to know if Cooper Teare's time will put him in the top 10 all-time
    list for the current course? His performance is quite impressive since SJND is a
    small D5 school.

  4. The course changes almost every year due to something going on on the golf course. Sometimes it's minor but a change.

  6. Only course to not change, probably in all of California, is Crystal Springs. It's fun to have all-time lists but these are only valid on a few courses.
