The Ivy League doesn't allow 5th years so this young man is thinking about running a 5th year of xc and outdoor track. I told him I'd try to help him figure out what his options are. His PBs are as follows.
800 1:53.5 (2010)
1k 2:26.7 (2011)
1500m 3:48.93 (2012)
Mile 4:07.29 (2012)
3000m 8:09.23 (2013)
5000m 14:25.28 (2012)
He started out as an 800/1500 guy and only ran xc his junior year (i guess he might have done it sophomore year as well) (hurt this year) as he's more of a track guy. He got healthy and ran 8:09 indoors this winter but then had his appendix out and thus is thinking about trying again outdoors next year as he's missed close to a month.
