2003:

For the fifth year Ted Poulos had a sextuple-double, including records in three categories and season's best in another. New comer Kirk Gordon swiftly raced to a quintuple double as did Chrsitina Caravoulias. Seven runners moved to quadruple. The big story was the specificity. Jon Palks had only a triple favoring 5 milers, 5Ks and a long shot stab at the other record. Dave MSherry had 63 10Ks and 36 5Ks and left the other races alone. Prolific 5Ker Mitch Radella had nearly 100 5ks but only a triple.

2002:

James Moreland repeated with his second septuple-double, closely followed by John Winkert's first septuple. For the fourth year in a row, Ted Poulos had a sextuple-double, three times falling short in the 15K/10M category. Seemingly the easiest record to beat, John Winkert tied that record with 12 in that category. Christina Caravoulias repeats the quintuple, and while Jay Wind dropped back from last year's sextuple for the quintuple, Peter Blank leapfrogged the quad from last year's triple to gain his first quintuple. Karsten Brown surged up from last year's double double to the quintuple. Robert McGill and Patrick Griffith moved up to the quadruple double.

2001: James Moreland earned the first septuple-double. John Winkert and Jay Wind moved up to the sextuple-double with Ted Poulos. Chuck Raper and Chris Caravoulias made the quintuple-double and Robert McGill made the quadruple-double. Five others tripled. Ted Poulos earned a sextuple-double in 1998, 1999, and 2000 falling just short of the septuple-double with 9 ten-milers the first two years and the missing the double in the OTHER in 2000. John Winkert also earned a sextuple double, falling short in the 10M. John Smeby earned a quintuple-double for two years but with 103 5Ks stopped at a double-double this year.

2000: James Moreland rebounded from five months injured to have a quintuple-double, just missing the septuple with nine in both the 5M and the 10M. He slept in for the Cherry Blossom "snow storm." He also was stopped at 99 races when the killer blizzard of 2000 canceled the Greenbelt 20 Miler on December 30. Imants Celtnieks had a quadruple-double in 1998, moved up to quintuple-double in 1999. He dropped back to the quadruple-double, going half marathon crazy with 10. Peter Blank earned quintuple-double in 1999 and quadruple-double in 2000. Bill Osburn earned quadruple-double in 1999. Jay Wind earned quadruple-double in 1998, triple-double in 1999, and quintuple-double in 2000. Robert McGill, even with 81 5Ks, earned a quadruple-double. Chris Caravoulias earned her first quadruple-double in 2000. Mitch Radella earned a triple-double even with 111 5Ks.
