I will admit I don't know who this guy is; this is the first I'm hearing about him. It looked like a cool workout so I clicked....
Well, I was surprised to see the level of excitement this generated. This poster puts that in perspective. I'm not a Rupp fanatic but I'd have to hand it to his workout over this dude's. Just comparing the 2, you know, and PRs too, assuming the poster is right.
So 5th or higher, meaning 6th or 7th, could be realistic, but I'm not so sure. Is he a citizen of some country in which he can make the team? If he's US (and nothing else) eligible, is there much chance of top-3 at the Trials?
Is 5k his specialty? According to the poster, he doesn't even have an Oly qualifier. Let's not hand out the medals just yet.....
