One of my pet projects during the spring was to put together a list of Livingston County track and field records.
It would’ve been easy to just list the top performance in each event by pooling information from school record boards, but what fun would that be? I tried to go at least five performances deep in each event.
Anything that happened in what we call the Athletic.net era is easy to find. The potential issues come if an older record from, say, the 1990s is no longer on a school record board and isn’t listed on A.net. So, I put together this list realizing I could miss those types of performances. If you can provide proof of a performance I missed, send it to [email protected] and I’ll pass it on to my replacement.
It also gets really tricky with sprints because of hand-timed performances that were converted. For any event under 400 meters, I included only times that were captured electronically. As a result, my list of 100- and 200-meter times is pretty short.
I also didn't include performances from meets in which athletes didn't represent their schools. That omits the 2022 GVSU Redemption meet where Hartland's Riley Hough ran 4:04.68 and Pinckney's Caleb Jarema ran 4:10.56 for 1,600 meters.
As part of a series on Livingston County sports records, here are the top boys track and field performances.
