Lindgren's accomplishments are many.

He set records as a teen in Spokane, Wash., then continued his feats while at Washington State.

In the 1960s, he set a high school record in the 5,000-meter run that was only surpassed this year.

He also won three NCAA cross country titles (1966, 1967, 1969). He won 11 of the 12 NCAA championships in which he competed.
