In Tri, I have no idea.
On the track - 0% chance.
as tony the tiger of frosted flakes fame would say THEIR
GREAT.
If he keeps his personal life the way it has been going, karma is going to get him into several more accidents so 0%

That's not what Tony says.

The 50 mpw and cross training bit doesn't help your argument.
He was good BECAUSE of the cross training. He stated that he preferred training that way and felt it made him a better athlete than just running alone.
Part of the reason he left Oregon is because he was forced to do only running and didn't like it.
1% chance of making it
HOWEVER THERE IS A 100% CHANCE HE WILL DESERT THE TEAM IF HE MAKES IT, JUST LIKE HE DESERTED THE LAME DUCKS
LV is a huge talent and 2016 is over 2 years away, so I don't think anyone can say zero chance. With that said, he is barely at the level he was in high school. He first has to bridge the gap between himself and the top NCAA and second tier professionals and the gap between Ritz, Derrick, True and Rupp, etc. and those guys is a canyon. The U.S. is so deep right now that I don't see anyone other than perhaps True, Braun, Chelanga and Bumbalough making the 2016 5K/10K that we don't already know about.

Actually, I can. And I did.

Their what is great? Oh, wait, you meant THEY'RE great. Moron...
Actually, Tony would say "They're not that great...in fact he has no chance." Tony knows track and field.
Wait LV's goal is ot make the 20126 Olympic team in tri AND track? That is simply impossible.
Verzbicas's chances at 2016 or 2020 Olympic team in TRACK?
Vanishingly close to zero.
I don't understand why anyone would say that he is talented on the track? He failed miserably in XC and dumped his team. Why would anyone give this guy cred?
What has he done on the track or XC worthy of a thread?
He's an arrogant little turd who probably threw his athletic career away when he decided to ride like an idiot in a workout.

You must be new here.
Your welcome.
Douglas isn't that clever. He just screwed that one up.
Your welcome two.

No kidding, he'll be about 18,130 years old by then. Well past his peak, even if he moves up to the 10K.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
