Subject: RE: HS Sophomore wins state 1500 in 3:53, in his first full year of running
Body:

Agreed. I ran low 3:50s my senior year in HS. It is mind blowing to me that a sophomore with limited running background ran 3:53.

10, 9, 8.... counting the seconds for a letsrun poster to proclaim there are 16-yr-old Ethiopians and Kenyans running 3:3x and this kid is no good and should give up and blah blah blah.

Last year, he ran 4:23. This year he ran 3:53 with an increased focus on running. That's where I see the potential. Whether he was playing soccer, badminton, etc. that kind of improvement is rare. I'm not saying he will run 3:4x next year (I hope he does), but I'm more optimistic on his potential than a kid that has been training full time for years.
