Request for input from the Community - Indoor All-Time Lists

[JAVMAN83]

I am working towards an initial release of all-time indoor lists for everyone by the end of December. Top 30 compilations.

Regarding the indoor running events, I have been building separate lists for legal-sized tracks (< 200m) and over-sized tracks (> 200m). For record purposes, only legal-sized tracks are recognized. However, for comparison purposes, I am thinking of combining lists using the commonly used conversion factors used by the NCAA for qualifying between legal-sized banked & flat tracks, and those over-sized flat tracks. As I use Excel for these compilations, it is easy for me to build the conversions into a combined list and still show the original information so anyone can see where a mark is converted one or not. Remember, these are lists for comparison purposes only, not for record purposes.

So, I'm looking for what y'all think? Thanks in advance for the input.

I do like different lists.

Although daunting, I wish OATCCC would do a conversion for 200 for state-qualifying purposes.

I don't think it would be daunting. The NCAA has done all the work just use their conversion. If TFRRS can convert their ranking I would think MileSplit could also.

Standard conversion factors going from 200m flat tracks to 200m banked tracks (which are rarely used at HS levels except for biggest meets at certain facilities) are used by the NCAA. They don't use conversion factors, however, going from over-sized flat tracks to 200m banked. They also differ slightly between sexes.

It isn't. I did the boys' 200 meter combined list last night. I'll be doing the girls this weekend. I'll be keeping the original over-sized track lists separate as well, but when I publish, the track sizes are will be clearly shown in a separate column.
