Like when Solinsky went sub 27, today when Meb won, etc.
I'd be interested to see all of them. Or at least know when all of them were.

Shove it mister.
They were on LRC once upon a day. Now they are not.
Off the top of my head:
Meb wins NYC
Solinsky sub 27
Rupp Silver medal
Rupp 10k AR (I think)
Bolt and Mini Bolt during the Olympics
When Rashid Ramzi tested positive for doping (pic of Willis with one finger missing to make 2 instead of 3)

I think that was the first LRC special screen for a performance.
And then Meb winning NYC shortly after that.
I remember there was one for German Fernandez' fast indoor mile of college. Not sure if it was his 3:56 or 3:55 - I think he ran both those times at different meets.
I thought there was a Kenyan who went to Arkansas that died a long time ago that got one.
Anyone notice the overwhelming common denominator triggering honorary mentions on LRC? Yep, all men.
SFH - 1000+ men
Is it up there right behind the Wheaties box?
Genzebe Dibaba (all 3?)
Chanelle Price...
Halls sub 60 at Houston is the first I remember
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
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
