Stravas 2024 Yearly Report Is Here Guinness World Record for the women’s 100x1 mile relay has stood at 9:23:39, or 5:37 average mile. On Saturday, June 3, the San Francisco running community is attempting to break that world record, Races - Places.
Running in the Cold San Francisco Women’s Miler Club, 100 different women will each run 1 mile on the track at Cox Stadium, an attempt co-hosted by the San Francisco Road Runners, Dolphin South End Runners, Impala Racing Team, Pamakid Runners, and Olympic Club Foundation.
Earlier in May, Guinness World Records decided against allowing pacers for the relay runners, according to race organizers. It is unclear whether the runners who set the record in 1999, coached by Harvey Mitro, had pacers.
Not just anyone can register to run; eligibility requirements stipulate that runners under the age of 50 must be proven sub-6:00 milers, and athletes over the age of 50 must be proven sub-8:00 milers. Plus, all runners must be tied to San Francisco in some way—birth, current or past school attendance, current residence or place of employment, or current membership to a local running club, according to the organizers.
Registration is open until 11:59 p.m. on May 31. Donations are suggested, to support Nutrition - Weight Loss.
