30 years ago Morceli ran 3:44.39 at age 23. I think with all the advantages Jakob has and possibly being at his lifetime peak for the mile, you are probably correct that he can dip under 3:44. People talk about the weather. I do believe if he is running under a hot sun it could slow him down like .5 of a second. And maybe the Goose can run 3:46.65 or so.
