what a joke, can' believe I stayed up for this jv squadcrap

no wonder nobody cares about this f*ckin sport

What about them? They didn't even run.

newbury park would have smoked them

The current record Is underestimated. Both Ray Flynn and Eamonn Coghlan were 3:49 milers, Coghlan indoors. Marcus O'Sullivan and Frank O'Mara were 3:51 guys and this was back in 1985. Every year, someone always gets together to take a shot at this and they always fail. Teare, Hocker, Wisner and James West fell short last year too. ON didnt even break 16 with Flanagan, Hoare, Elmer and Klecker

Yes, its beatable if you get the right team together but its nowhere near as soft as some here make out.

"Predicting the bonk" suggested the best strategy. Centro leads off and gauge your efforts from there. At least Centro has options. Either move to the roads in distance or retire.

Those are on-paper times with almost no relevance because the athletes aren’t currently at that level or close. You going to put a 3:49 Centro in the US squad by that logic?

Gotta love these Nike people. Promoting a sucky event. This is hilarious.

People who say the 4xmile record is soft have never ran alone on the third leg of the 4xmile

That was a professional race?

I don´t think a 4:01.56 is bad as a season opener. Centro normally run much faster in the high season.

4:01.56 in the mile equals 3:43.6 in the 1500m. If he ran alone his time more or less equals his season opener in Palo Alto 2018 where he ran high 3:40 in the 1500m in a race with a competive field and 2 pacemakers (in that race he and other American top runners, including Chelimo, Engels and Fisher were destroyed by a certain Norwegian teenager).

In 2018 Centro went on to run high 3:31 in the Monaco 1500m in July so I don´t think we shall write him off yet.

That was 5 years ago. That's a long time in the career of a professional athlete. Do you also think he could run 3.31 in another 5 years?

Centro fizzling out sure highlights how great Willis's 20 years of sub 4 is.

What did the other 3 run?

But he did not run 4:01.x he ran 4:04.x correct?

yea he ran 4:04

Wonder why there were a few references to a 4:01.xx when it is clear he ran 4:04.x ??

The 4:01 has to be a 1600m time. He must have died those last 9+ meters.
