BU Valentine's Invite 2024

#3 collegiate indoor time ever. Could you imagine if Wiley was running college this year? Record would be destroyed by 5 seconds or more. She can crush Asekol in a mile race. I think Ramsden might take it down this weekend at Millrose. She is certainly better than Asekol in the mile and will have plenty of company in the sub 4:25 range.

I'm not so sure. Asekol beat Ramsden in XC and also has faster 800 pr I think.

Happily colllge running will never have to know. Disinfected. Thanks Addidas.

And this again a VERY FAST TRACK. :)

4:26.47 is 4:26.47. It’s worth better than Ramsden has ever run for 1500. I’m guessing Ramsden will beat Asekol this year but I wouldn’t blithely declare “she is certainly better than Asekol in the mile” after today.

It’s kinda wild that there’s a Gabriella Szabo running for New Mexico. 4:50 mile today - a ways to go to catch the other Gabriela Szabo.

for a refresher, FL ran 10:52 with 3:20 on leadoff and 4:34 (Asekol) on anchor.

Asekol would appear to have 4:25 within reach so that is 9 seconds right there or 10:43 vs current record of 10:46.6

Peter Maru of Arkansas is entered in the mens 5000m. He represented Uganda with Kiplimo and Cheptegi at worlds in 2022 with a pb of 13:07 and I think was added to their roster in the past week. What the hell is he about to do this weekend??

3000 starting now

433 entries in the men's mile...wonder what the fastest and slowest times will be.

8:45 pace thru 1200

Yes, that is a good description of most of your posts.

Lauren Ryan 8:42.3....Hilda faded to 8:50, Elly Henes also 8:50 clearly not in top form right now. 2 Georgetown runners 8:52 and 8:53.8

What happened with Henes? Based on the splits she never contended for the win. I wonder where she is at with training.

Looks like Olemomoi was right with the lead but blew up the last two laps. Nice run by Riggins and Scrimgeor.

Saw her holding her side and tell her coach she got a side stitch with 400m to go. She looked good through 2600m.

Hope it's nothing serious and glad she at least posted a solid time for Indoor Nats.

It's unfortunate that McCabe missed that one, a race that seemed tailor-made for her: the leaders running smooth and even, clicking off a string of 35s, then Ryan slamming the final 200 in 31.

Kelati, Yee, Ryan -- a nice recent trajectory for UA Dark Sky. Anyone know if they ever train together?

Apparently she had lung surgery a few months ago. She's tough!

So many outstanding, fast mile and 3k times this year. I am kind of surprised Asekol ran quite this fast tbh but maybe I shouldn't be. But I don't think anyone can say Ramsden is better for sure yet.

FL has no more meets until SEC. Is Valby just skipping the regular season or injured?

Wow, lung surgery! Sounds like she is planning to race her way back to shape and run the 10k during outdoors.
