German is the obvious answer because he did not do anything close to 90mpw in hs, unlike Ritz, and German started running much later and didn't even do hard speed training (coach said he did not run faster than 30 s 200s in hs), but still ran a lot faster at 2M and 1M, before running faster by far as a freshman in the mile than Ritz has ever run, running a few seconds faster in the 5k, despite being a year younger and having his training interrupted several times the same year by injuries. In other words, German does far less, starts later, and still outperforms Ritz in everything other than xc. What Ritz has is a work ethic and an incredible competitive attitude. Neither one has the talent of good health.


50% of this information is wrong. Dathan and German ran 1327 and 1325, only German did it the summer going into sophomore year and Dathan did it during the season (sooner).

And just because German ran no faster than 30 second 200s doesn't mean he didn't run 2:00 800s.
