Age-group thresholds

Editions: 2013 · 2014 · 2015 · 2016 · 2017

How to read it: in each row, the time under "Top 10%" is the time of the slowest athlete who still made the fastest 10% of the age group. Beat that time and you are in. Age groups with fewer than 5 finishers are omitted. Finishers only.
