Minnesota Running Data Center
Female Runners of the Year 2015

Points are based on times recorded on certified courses in Minnesota that meet standards based on the runner's age/sex group. Specifically, the numbers listed under each distance heading are in inverse order of the runner's rank in that age/sex group, with 10 being the maximum number of points in the five-year age groups and 20 in the open divisions. Runners can score at up to five different distances, so that the maximum number of points is 100 in the Open divisions and 50 in the age groups. To achieve those scores a runner would have to record the fastest time in his/her group at five different distances, and the time standard for each of those distances would have to be met at least 10 (20 in the open divisions) times (though not necessarily by different runners; when a runner turns in more than one performance in the top 10 or 20, he/she gets only his/her maximum number of points for that distance).

When a runner earns points in more than five different distances. In such cases only the best five were totaled.

Here are the final results for 2015.
