But there are some loose rules.  (1) Old PB's are ok, but the runner can't be retired (2) the athlete must have their own YouTube channel. People who are on YouTube in other channels' videos don't qualify (like Conner Mantz). I also don't count group/team YouTube accounts, like Reed Fischer of Tinman Elite, but I may change my mind on that later (3) the athlete needs to have posted at least once to their YouTube channel within the last 12 months
