i heard corry prim through 800meters.

That could be disasterous-- fast 800 guys usually make bad rabbits...

They got an appropriate rabbit:

If you're in the area, I think you should go check it out. I won't, cuz it's 2000 miles away.

I would guess that AJ runs 4:01-4:02.

If you mean Bruce and Keino, I agree-- they're more likely to hit the splits in an even manner...

It will be interesting to see. The last person this close was Magness, who had 1:52 800m speed. I think he ran about 8:55 two mile as well, so we'll have to see if Acosta's strength holds up better than Magness's speed.

Acosta split 1:51 in his very first meet of the outdoor season. Magness' only ran 9:09.96. He's superior in both aspects. He has a shot.

GO AJ @@!!!@!@@!!#$!$%!%!#^^

He runs four flat.

It would be hilarious if he ran 4:00.00

I'd laugh

thats not too good of a list...i see the mercados r in their...maybe just for emotional support.

Best I could do,... I solicited entrants at USATF, and earlier.

I'm appreciative of guys like Danny, Diego, Ahmed, and Jeremy who are willing to jump in a race that is well faster than they are capable, and helping give the race the right atmosphere.

Jacques, Ben, Bolota, and Keino are all good runners, who are there to race, and would like a sub-4:00 to their credit.

I hope for a good race between those guys, and I think it will require a sub-4:00 from one or more of those guys for AJ to have a chance at it as well.

should've gotten that kid who ran the downhill sub4, how was that guys outdoor season?

I depends. What is this little weasel's PB?

Let me revise my answer to NO.

You don't have any idea what you're talking about. That is

a great list and you will be embarrased for having written the shameful words you've slurried. If I was a betting man, which I am, I would bet that you'll stick your head between your legs and kiss your ass for being so incorrect.

Yah, I agree with you. Did you play a part in the movie

called Waterboy?

AJ runs 3:58.8.
