Along with a full day of HS and College races:
Sydney McLaughlin, a senior at Union Catholic NJ, will take one final crack at the national high school record in the 300 meters. The time she is looking for is 36.96, which is the record held by Francena McCorory of Bethel HS (Va.) since 2006.
Outstanding.

They are doing it as a personal affront to you with no other motive or agenda

Where did you hear that Columbia was invited?
I have a friend on the team who claims he is in the race. He isn't one of their best runners and he says they're doing a tempo workout before though, so I think they're just doing it as a workout / because Merb is in it.
Just got an email from the RD confirming that there are 6 teams in the race, and I think that's the final field, though as of now I only know three of them (Columbia, NJNYTC, GSTC).

habs,
Will you be at the meet? If so will you be in a position to update the board with 200m splits?
Thanks
I'll be there, but I'm also racing so I don't think I can commit to updating yall live, sorry. I'll try to take 200m splits and post them here shortly after though. And I know this doesn't necessarily help much but the race will be live streamed for runnerspace+ members here:

lol
Entries are out:
So there's 2 Columbia teams plus NYU and some other club team, plus GSTC and NJNYTC.
will passing runners become a stumbling block to the sub 1600 attempt
What is best
A lapped runner stays on rail and overtaking runner passes as he wants
or
B lapped runner moves out to lane two.
in B the lapped runner could not time his move outside correctly thus causing overtaking runner to alter his stride or bump him.
In A you know he'll stay on the rail no chance of him veering into the overtaking runner.
discus.
Plus exact split marks and exchange zones on track will be hard to identify even to a trained officials.
Unfortunately @okaycolby isn't feeling 100% today and will be replaced on the 4xMile tomorrow by Graham Crawford (337.0/356.0) at @ArmoryNYC

Any one of the NJNY guys could have rabbits the Millrose 2-mile last week, which was supposed to go through in 4:04. Really they all should be able to go 3:03/:57 solo fairly easily.
"Lame"? "Obscure"? Did you read the names of the Irishmen who have the record?
This is the prime target

Going sub 4 running alone is hard.

If this team gets under 16:10 it will be terrific.
I recall the group that tried to go sub 16 outdoors at Hayward...Galen Rupp, Matthew Centrowitz, Andrew Wheating, Shadrack Biwott.
They came in at 16:03, running virtually on their own.
This is harder than it sounds on paper.
proven
Did the first leg run 1636m?

rojo your splits are different than the link
They will be going for the indoor record next weekend at the armory and also looking at the outdoor record this year. Team will be Merber, Colby Alexander, Ford Palmer, and Donn Cabral. I think they would be capable of running the necessary times, might be tough to break 16 solo. Any other teams looking to run it with them? Where would they do it outdoors?
Editor's update on Feb 17: They've broken the 16:16.67 record by running 16:12.71. The splits according to a Citiusmag.com article were Cabral, 4:04; Palmer, 4:01; Crawford 4:07, Merber 3:57. Their tweet has different splits.
