Club Northwest Records (UNDER CONSTRUCTION)

Although their mile records have since been overwritten, Club Northwest’s first three sub-4 milers were the #61, #131, and #197 American sub-4 milers! Jim Johnson, Gary Gustafson, and Buck Jones.

Club Northwest’s Herm Atkins also held the record for fastest black American marathoner for over 40 years, with a time of 2:11:32, until it was broken at the 2020 Marathon Project.

Club Northwest’s Gail Hall had a CNW-record-holding marathon career highlighted by a 2nd place finish at the 1992 Chicago Marathon!
