2025 NCAA Outdoor Distance Rankings
2025 FloTrack NCAA Distance Rankings can be found below.
Our team ranked the top 15 distance runners in the nation by gender. For this event group and the mid-distance group, we made determinations based on which athletes primarily run the 800m and 1,500m, compared to those who tend to run the 1,500m, 5,000m and 10,000m. Steeplechase is also included in this event group.
Our team can't predict every athlete who is or isn't competing this season, so some educated predictions were made regarding certain athletes. We will adjust our rankings accordingly throughout the season.
