We continue our project, which started out with the distance and sprint medley relays, with the Swedish relay - specifically, 100-200-300-400. The legs could be any four runners who competed for the school over the past decade. For each team, we used each runner's personal bests in the 100, 200, 300 and 400.
We tried to put together the fastest possible group for each team based on existing personal bests. When applicable we will also point out if there may have been a runner who could have run faster (for instance, if a team had a standout indoor runner who ran 35.00 in the 300 but never ran a 400, we can't put him on the 400 leg, even if he would likely be the fastest).
We ranked every team that could put together a sub-2:00 squad - and plenty of teams just missed by seconds, or even less! We list the top ten teams here and also provide a read-only link to the Google spreadsheet that lists all 91 teams that met the standard (the list can be found on the fifth sheet, while the DMR and SMR teams are on the first four sheets).
