As we near the AAU Junior Olympic Games this year in Des Moines, Iowa, we reflect on the history of the distance events from the Games.
So who are the top performers in history?
High School all-time performers like Tinoda Matsatsa and Brandon Miller have started their journeys through the AAU Junior Olympic Games over the years.
On the girls side, the collegiate record holder and Olympic and World medalist Athing Mut left her mark on the Games. The recent NCAA Outdoor 800m champion Michaela Rose started out competing at the AAU Junior Olympics as well.
