That’s awesome! Have been a fan of Cam since seeing him doing heavy mileage weeks and eating cereal nonstop. Such an interesting runner and a pretty humble guy. Good to see him having success again.

Should have never gone to Salazar. -
I saw this; he did mention going out too fast. (First k was 2:38, average pace 2:57.) Wife drove beside him. Insanely fast time trial!
-
Cam is a great guy but who opens a half marathon with a 2:38/K ??!!
-
I wouldn't say he's 'back'.... When he was in 27:27 10k shape in 2012 he would've been able to do a half marathon time trial faster than this. And didn't he run 2:09 marathon last year or two years ago? He could've probably done better than a 62 half marathon time trial then too. But 62 certainly isn't garbage, he's at least in decent shape.

i mean everyone is different but a lot of elite marathoners (rupp, for example) would be happy with a 1:02 in a tuneup race 6 weeks out from a big marathon.
to do that in a tt setting without a race environment is very impressive, in my opinion. it all depends on whether he is someone that prefers the tt environment to a race, whether he tapered, etc. -
Any runner who can time trial a 1:02 half is a very good runner. I am happy to hear Cam is back.

Based on 4 diffrent conversions a 62 half is about a 2:09 to 2:10:30 full -
...and off a super fast opening couple miles

Not necessarily Jewish.
You can see how Levins families moved over time by selecting different census years. The Levins family name was found in the USA, the UK, Canada, and Scotland between 1840 and 1920. The most Levins families were found in the USA in 1880. In 1840 there were 7 Levins families living in Connecticut. This was about 18% of all the recorded Levins's in the USA. Connecticut and 1 other state had the highest population of Levins families in 1840. -
This name is derived from the Middle English given name "Lefwine", (Old English "Leofwine"), composed of the elements "laof" meaning "dear" or "beloved", plus, "wine" a friend. One Wilfricus filius (son of) Leofwini is recorded in the Old English Bynames Register in 1010. The surname may also be derived from an Anglicized form of the Gaelic patronymic Mac Giolla Giullin, "son of (mac) the servant of (giolla) William". The modern idiom of the spelling includes Lewins, Lewen, Levin, Leven, Livens, Levens. In 1660 Elonor Lewen was born at Kirk Michael, Isle of Man. George, son of Thomas and Mary Lewens, who was christened in London in March 1700. Jemima Scot Lewen was born in East Lothian, Haddington, Scotland on the 29th July 1869. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of John Lewyn, which was dated 1230, in the "Northamptonshire Register", during the reign of King Henry 111, known as "The Frenchman", 1216 - 1272. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

The mystery for many is that Cam has an ethnic appearance and this might suggest mixed parentage. The suggestion that he’s Jewish is unproven. I’ve seen this mentioned several times on the Internet and it’s somewhat baffling.
Now, enough of the ethnic profiling and let’s focus on his magnificent running in the past and hopefully his future ability to replicate what he did in the past. -
There is a virus called "Covid19"....saw it on television
