The best 1500 runners have never contested the mile very often. It is completely obscure on the European circuit. A Kenyan on the street does not have any idea how many meters there are to a mile. Without the best actually running the even, this ranking means very little. It's like being 5th all-time in the 1000. Great. But not nearly as meaningful as a real event. 3:51.0 is worth about 3:33.7 for Rupp. |

2.5 seconds off the world indoor record doesn't mean anything? On an outdoor track Rupp would FOR SURE go sub 3:30 for a 1500. And about 3:47 for a mile |

The 1500 conversion still puts him top 20 all-time indoors. Not bad for a 10k guy in the middle of the season winning by 50 meters. |

LOL. You are a total clown. Unable to argue with my obviously correct points, you attack my PR?? Um, OK. By the way, learn to use the quote function. And question marks. |

I agree. It's excellent! All I'm saying is that it's eons from the 3:28 that fanboys have been predicting. |

Please explain your logic on this. By ANY mile-1500 conversion out there, 3:50.9 is worth about 3:33.3-3:33.8. Do you think he's got 3.5-4.0 seconds in reserve there? I hope so. But doubt it. |

Rupp is quickly becoming my all time favourite athlete. BEAST |

1)The the indoor season is still early 2) Outdoor is typically faster then indoor 3) He already ran 3:34 last year off of mostly 5k/10k work He had to have been doing mile specific training before his 3:50.92 so imagine what he could run while doing a whole season of mile pace work. Thats the only way I believe he could run sub 3:30 |

Rupp is like Webb and Fernandez, running highly ranked miles that don't mean shit. |

Fair enough. But even with 1.0 for seasonal progress (optimistic, I think, as Rupp often runs times near his best in Jan-Feb), and 1.5-2.0 for the indoor-->outdoor conversion (Rupp is tiny; I don't see the effect being all that much at mile pace), I don't see it happening. Like I said, I hope so. But then, I also hope Rudisha goes 1:39.x before he's done. I just wouldn't bet on it. |

mind=blown. Wish I'd watched! Seemed like too much of a pain to find, now I regret it big time! Anyway, this is really exciting! Go Rupp! |

OK, so you and Rupp-Certified Butth0le are underwhelmed by a 3:50 in January. What WOULD impress you from a 5k/10k guy? Running a mile on water? |
