Vestal XX Course and Age Group Records

"I find the Vestal XX to be a runner's true challenge. In my 22 years of running I have found no other race that tests me more. The competition from my fellow runners comes in a distant fourth to the course itself, the heat, and the humidity. The comradeship felt by all who finish is not seen in many other races. It is a race for those who love running."

Eric Eaton, June 1997


The Vestal XX 20 km race has been held every year since 1971. Some of the best age group runners in the USA have run Vestal. Here is a compilation of open records, age-group records, and single-age records for the Vestal XX.
