Anyone know when and where the Wisconsin distance team is scheduled to debut outdoors?
Hopefully this will be a fast race as opposed to guys just jogging and trying to win at the end. I think everynoe is really curious to see what kind of a time Webb can throw down now in the 800m. He has a PR of 1:46.something, but at the world level, that kind of speed doesn't really cut it. It'd be hard to imagine him running 1:45 at this time of the year though, seeing as how 1:44.high would probably be as fast as he could go. There's good competition in the race though, so hopefully we'll at least see sum sub 1:47's. My predictions:
1. Webb, 1:46.10
2. Burley
3. Ramirez
4. Glavash
5. Bayley
6. Renshaw
7. Yousfi
8. Lukezic
9. Fitts

After their indoor season, a lot of them seemed to be pretty tuned up, which might make some wonder if maybe some of them are on pace to peak early, but they're probably just getting in some good training. It only counts at nationals, right? Although I guess they do need to get qualifying times at some point. In case you didn't know though, here is a list of what some of them accomplished through the indoor season, as far as times go:
Mile
Jack Bolas 4:01.47
Brandon Bethke 4:01.81
Craig Miller 4:02.60
3000m
Chris Solinsky 7:51.69
Stuart Eagon 7:54.09
Tim Nelson 7:57.37
Brandon Bethke 8:02.30
Craig Miller 8:04.40
5000m
Chris Solinsky 13:30.74
Stuart Eagon 13:41.52
Tim Nelson 13:42.18
Matt Withrow 14:01.93
Christian Wagner 14:08.91

I'm not convinced it won't be as you suggest in your opening line. However, it is a speed test for Webb and it is the first outdoor 800M race for your predicted top 3. It's going to be a 250M to the end and the strongest will prevail. Lekezic could upset (as he is Burley training partner).
