Ask my anything. Running, life, money, cars, women, training, just don’t expect a serious reply.
Fire away.

What's a 3:35 old guy?
Tell about your entire running career. How you got into the sport, your progression, etc.
Will the Petes win the Memorial Cup?
And any crazy training stories if you have any.

Well. I had a mullet.
So I ran.
It was much nicer than Craig’s. My stash really did suck compared to his though. Quite a bit in fact. I finally progressed to a normal haircut after John Walker accused me of being a complete wanker to want to look like him.
Then I retired.

Did you ran a mile that fast or a kilometer?

I love this guy. As much as I can anyways. Please come drink beer with me. Please!!
Do you keep in touch with Falcon? You made the Canadian Olympic Team. If eligible, would you have made the US Team?

I just consulted with the entire Evans family and the consensus is ……. Only if they all eat “ steak “ burritos before the final.

Looks like just another Canadian who didn't manage to run a Marathon.

Ah yes. If you have to ask, then you really don’t “ know”.
I did run a fast kilometer though. I looked good doing it too
Did you suspect any of the top names of doping back then?
Tell about the 1991 Pre Mile

This entirely depends on if he got “ action” in the Olympic village. ….. or..
He made the Olympic team, but did not compete. So he is an Olympian but he did not compete in the Olympics.
So he can’t say he competed in the Olympics but he is an Olympian.
As opposed to me whom really, really sucked when I was in the Olympics. But I did better that Nuguse!
What's your name and social security number?

Last I talked to the man was when we shared a neighboring jail cell in Bolivia….. ( reunion a few years ago. Great guy, not a lot of communication)
I raced Atkinson 3 times before the 1988 trials.
1) me 3:35 him 3:37 ( his Oly standard)
2)me 1:47 him 1:48
3) him 3:57 me a step back in 3:57 ( pre mile)
By the US trials I had mono. So answer is No…. But my kids can!!!
The real question is who parties better, Atkinson or me?
And to this I respectfully bow to the man. Not even close to him.
