About Alisa:
Born and raised in Arlington, Virginia, Alisa Harvey is one of the DMVโ€™s greatest middle-distance runners.
A Thomas Jefferson High School alum, she set a school record of 4:50 in the mile before running at the University of Tennessee, where she was part of an NCAA-record 4x800m relay and won the 1986 NCAA Outdoor 1500m title.
Post-collegiately, Harvey became a national force, ranking in the U.S. top 10 in the 1500m for eight straight years from 1986โ€“1993, reaching No. 1 in 1993. She also ranked nationally in the 800m six times and, in 1998, became the 24th American woman to break 4:30 in the mile.
She won the Fifth Avenue Mile in 1991 and 1999, continued setting records as a masters runner, and still holds multiple W35/W40 indoor and outdoor marks. Locally, she has coached at George Mason University, George Mason High School, and Battlefield High School.
In 2019, she was inducted into the National Black Distance Running Hall of Fame, cementing her legacy as a trailblazer, champion, coach, and pillar of the running community.
