If all these test positive for Meldonium, we'll know who to blame.

If you’ve ever run on BU’s track you’d kno why everyone goes there to run fast. I honestly don’t kno how it’s legal lol. But hey as long as it is, might as well keep rolling lmao
14 guys broke 4min there. With it taking possibly 3:57 to make the NCAA champs this year, BOston Univ seems to be the place to run a fast mile. #Ma’sArmy
The air is easier to breathe than Reggie and the surface/facility is excellent to run on. Alberto will send his best to run on it, even if there is a near by pro meet that is also going on that week (thinking specifically of Galen Rupp running the Indoor Games at Reggie but then an AR mile). Ches also did something similar as well with his racing.
Found this list of men that have broken 4 at BU. Are there any other tracks in the country that can match this? Dempsy?

Back at the old BU Armory Track, they often let other teams use the facility for training. I can remember, on a very quiet morning, lying down on the infield doing some hurdler stretches and seeing rats under the track. That’s my guess why athletes are running so fast.
Pretty cool that Webb looks like the first sub-4 on that track.
List isn't even complete. Missing Coby Horowitz who ran 3:59 at Terrier in 2016. Also missing Jamie Norton. He ran 4:06 and went to Tufts.
