Coverage note. Women’s record withheld: the IAU page labels Camille Herron’s 12:42:40 as the open record but also lists a faster 12:37:05 for Caitriona Jennings in W40, plus a pending Ashley Paulson application. These conflicting entries do not establish a clear current open record, so no women’s winner is claimed here.
