Here are the top 10 times in Iowa high school girls cross country this season

We're into the fifth week of the Iowa high school girls cross country season.

There have been several outstanding 5K times run so far in 2022. Different courses bring unique challenges for every runner, so not all times are created equal.

Even facing a difficult course or poor weather conditions hasn't stopped several athletes from turning in outstanding times. Multiple runners have broken 18 minutes and one broke the girls state 5k record earlier this year.

Entering this week there have been no changes in the top 10 times from last week.

Note: We count only the fastest time recorded for each runner. There are no multiple entries for an individual runner.
