The best females are typically 5'1"-5'5". The best males are typically 5'6"-5'9". These heights are optimal because the optimal weight for a long distance runner is 92-105 pounds (female) or 115-130 pounds (male), and you can't be much taller than with running muscles and still be under the optimal weight.
