8K, 10K, 12K, 15K, 10 Mile & 20K.
Here are Brian’s M65-69 AR splits and H Mar finishing time:

10K – 36:35 (old M65 American Record, 37:04)
12K – 44:04 (old M65 American Record, 46:58)
15K – 55:15 (old M65 American Record, 55:16)

To set an age group AR in the Half Marathon, a very competitive event, is a very significant accomplishment, but to set 6 ARs in route is one for the ages.
