Lagat's days as a 1500 man are over, he's a 5K and 10K specialist. I'm sure this was an early season tune up. Not bad for a tune up. |
| Yup! |
| ||
Kinda hard to be a 10k specialist when he's never run one. While Lagat may finish higher at the Olympics this year, Rupp will definitely run much faster than Lagat this season. This will be the last we see of Bernie, unless there's a new drug coming out of course. |

Good point, he just ran an indoor pr for 5k - clearly he is barely hanging on. |
| yup! |
| ||
He just got smoked in that 1500 in England. His speed clearly isn't what it used to be. |

Salazar's kind of people? Upper middle class suburban Boston. Wayland is actually a really nice town... |

I think Lagat will be happy to have a medal as opposed to the faster time this year. |

What's wrong with that? |

He runs best in the spring? What year are you thinking of? He has always struck me as a consistent over-achiever. Not much to criticize -- unless you think everyone should be a medalist.[/quote] Based on his H.S. and NCAA results, I would agree DT is perhaps a "consistent over-achiever", but I would like to see him "over-achieve" when it really matters. Up to now, DT best races against the top tier athletes have come in situations where he had a great race and a few guys where off their game. What's interesting is if you got together all of the top milers in the world right now, very few would be able to run 3:35...so he is off the a good start. |

It is still a WL, because it was outdoor. |

It's inspirational to see LetsRun.com's own prodigal son David Torrence on the following IAAF page listed just below El Guerrouj with the best outdoor 1,500 time in the world so far in 2012: http://iaaf.org/statistics/records/inout=o/discType=5/disc=1500/detail.html He's come a long ways since chronicling his midnight downhill sub-4 mile attempt here on LetsRun a few years back. Way to race, David! Cheers, Wino Hobo |

Can Rupp run 3:36 indoor? probably not. |

Rupp can't run 3'36 indoor, but he can run an 8'09 AR solo. |
