What it actually takes to run at Missouri

NCAA Division I · SEC · MO

These aren’t published walk-on standards or estimates. They’re the real marks of the 5 athletes Missouri actually signed in its 2025-26 recruiting class — including 3 international signees. The honest answer to “would they recruit me?”

Missouri is a 23,613-student public campus in Columbia, MO and competes in the SEC. Brett Halter leads a staff of 10 covering 4 event groups.

The median below is the middle signee’s PR and the range spans the whole class, fastest to slowest. 1500m/Mile and 3000m are shown converted to 1600m/3200m. All of it comes from verified meet results.
