Certified proof emerges of Jeanne Daprano sub-7 W75 mile WR

USATF has no excuse now. Andy Hecker of Southern California has dug up docs showing Jeanne Daprano ran a W75 mile world record 6:58.44 in July 2012. Her phototimer image (below) and her signed record application (see it here) were sent this week to USATF masters records czar Sandy Pashkin for annual meeting ratification. Why the record wasn’t certified in 2012 remains a mystery. But the paperwork (including surveyor’s certification of the Caltech track) appears to be in order. So expect action in Anaheim. Thanks for the sleuthing, Andy! (But it still wouldn’t hurt to sign the petition.)
