The US men’s team for the 1500 is going to be such a brutal team to make this next Olympic cycle. Hocker, Nuguse, and Kessler just entering their primes. The same is true for Green, Waskom, Sahlman, Martin, Strand, Murphy, Cook, Birnbaum, etc. Plausible to think we may have multiple US sub-3:30 guys that never make an outdoor world team. And I can’t believe I’m saying that.
Woah let’s pump the breaks. Birnbaum has no business being in this conversation right now. His PB is 3:37.93. He may make a big jump this year. But until he does, he’s just another good college miler.
