Can someone please tell me what these means?
"(Oregon Coach Robert) Johnson said a change in the NCAA indoor meet schedule — allowing for less cool-down time before the DMR during the opening day — might dictate Cheserek going back to the longer distances at the championship meet this season."
The schedule has barely changed.
Last year, the schedule was as follows:
5:30 mile
8:05 5000
8:45 PM DMR
This year it is
615 mile
845 5000
920 DMR
So last year, there was a 3:15 gap between the mile and DMR. This year there is a 3:05 gap. How could that possibly impact them changing what he runs?
I would imagine he'd go back to the longer stuff simply because they have some young milers but nothing in the 5k.
