1. Gerry Lindgren (Washington State) 13:47.8
Gerald ("Gerry") Paul Lindgren (born March 9, 1946 in Spokane, Washington) is an American track and field runner who set many long-standing high school and national records in the United States. In 1965, Lindgren and Billy Mills both broke the world record for the six-mile run when they finished in an extremely rare tie at the AAU National Championships, both running exactly 27:11.6.[2] Lindgren won multiple NCAA collegiate championships with Washington State University.

Keith Conning: I was born on March 16, 1941 in San Francisco, California. Gerry Lindgren was born almost five years later in Spokane, Washington. I attended the 1965 AAU meet in San Diego, California with my wife Marian. It was the first and only outdoor track meet that she has attended in our 50+ years of marriage. She did see our daughter Sarah Conning run in an indoor meet in Minnesota representing Carleton College of Northfield, Minnesota in 1991. I was not able to attend that meet, because I was teaching Consumer Economics and Business Law and coaching track at Berkeley High School in Berkeley, California.
5. Tom Heinonen (Minnesota) 14:07.2
One of Dellinger's assistants, hired in 1975, Tom Heinonen, was promoted to the head coach for the women's cross country and track and field team in 1977. Prior to Heinonen, no other full-time head coach at Oregon had exclusively coached the women's disciplines. He was a strong advocate for women's sports and was a force in making the Oregon Twilight Meet a co-ed event.[31] Women's cross country and track and field blossomed under Heinonen's leadership. He led the women's team to win its first three NCAA team championships and coached 14 NCAA individual champions. He produced 134 All-Americans and his athletes made 17 appearances in the Olympics.[32] He retired in 2003, after which the University of Oregon Athletic Department decided to combine the men's and women's programs under one head coach.[33]

Keith Conning: I have known Tom Heinonen for many years. He regularly attended the Kinney Western Regional Cross Country Championships at Woodward Park in Fresno. Bill Cockerham and his wife Judy were the directors of the meet. Doug Speck and I wrote for their magazine California Track News.
9. Ambrose Burfoot (Wesleyan) 14:20.6
Ambrose ("Amby") Joel Burfoot (born August 19, 1946) is an American marathoner whose peak competitive years came in the late 1960s and early 1970s. He was the winner of the 1968 Boston Marathon. After retiring from competition, he became a running journalist and author. Burfoot was the top editor (editor-in-chief) at Runner’s World for many years and both writes for Runner’s World and serves as editor-at-large.
