In 1964 Gerry Lindgren shattered the High School record for 5.000 m. His time was 13.44.0. Numerous High Schoolers have tried to break the records over the years, and none have succeeded. This is the oldest High School Records in the books. Gerry Lindgren went on to dominate the American 5k for the next couple of years, shared a 6 mile World Record with Billy Mills, won a total of 11 NCAA Championships, and won the 10.000 m. in the USA vs. USSR meet against two seasoned Russian runners, while still in High School.

Gerry is now living in Honolulu, HI, where he is coaching his group of runners while still putting in the miles himself.
