* indicates that this athlete or team would have made the list if each athlete or team was allowed to make the list only once. Their points will be counted in the exclusive scoring method only.
Special Note: Prior to 1972, only first place times were typically reported. This means that there may be a name or two that deserved to be on these lists that are not due to the lack of information. If anyone has access to full results from 1914-1971, please forward them to us and we'll be glad to include them in this listing.
