Updated 4/19/2021, this is a reference of best times recorded for the following distances per athlete.
This is a listing of the all-time best performances by North American residents. We list these as best times, not records, because many of these times have not been officially sanctioned or certified by USATF or any governing body. Nonetheless, the times are believed to be accurate. A ‘t’ next to the time indicates that the mark was set in a trail race, where the distance is believed to be accurate. If you have a correction/addition please let us know.

Please post the rest of the list! Where are the multi day lists? I am sure your readers would like to know.
Hi Trishul, We have compiled the rest and updated with multi day events. Thanks!
Could you post locations? I’d like to know where to go to get the road records!
I think I should be somewhere on that 6 day list en route to my 1000 mile. Thanks
Hi,
The men’s 100K list is missing my official time from the Mad City 100K this year.
I placed second to Geoff Burns, finishing in 6:35.56 which looks to be the 7th fastest time on the all time North American list.

HI Pat, you are 100% correct. Sorry about that, will get it updated right now. Thanks
Thank you!
