That kid from Portland that Spence nipped at the line went sub-1:50 a week ago.
Why the downvote? Three or four of those college kids in his heat have displayed 1:50 shape (or better) recently. Granted, those may have been in meets where they were doubling with a 1500m.
Ok, I'm not afraid to admit it. I was wrong. Spencer Brown ran 1:52.29 and I was off by 1.06 seconds. He surpassed my expectations. I will even give him credit in that he ran very even splits.
He needs to clean up his language, stop acting like an unemployed disc golf playing slacker, and start getting up early to see how the real world looks. Also, he needs to move up to the ‘Thon as he has no chance as a miler.
