Top-25 5K Performances in School History
Individual time records are difficult to keep track of for cross country as each race presents a distinct combination of terrain, weather conditions, and competition, just to name a few factors. Record keeping has also only very recently been constantly organized in online databases (such as athletic.net). This list is accurate to the best of our knowledge and has been cross referenced using first-hand testimony.

The current criteria to qualify for the state championships are either to be a member of one of the top-2 teams or finish as a top-6 individual who was not a member of either of the qualifying teams at the section championships. This list includes athletes who qualified by meeting either criteria. Byron has not had an individual state qualifier since we've moved to the AA class in 2021.
