UW Mens mile - Waskom 3:51.90 as 5 UW guys run 3:53 or faster and 8 break 4:00!!

This thread is useless without splits.

Ridiculous!

No splits that I can see. Here is a link for results.

Four guys under 3:54 for the mile on one team, actually 5 if you count Sam Ellis

Gonna end up taking 3:54 or faster just to make NCAAs. Crazy that the NCAA record was 3:55 until fairly recently.

Absolutely wild. Can we get an A-team and B-team at Penn relays this year in the 4xmile?

Newbury Park boys will beat them all!

Joe Waskom elite

There are none - this race was at the Dempsey Center

I get that it's faster than a 200m track, but goddamn is Dempsey is terrible for watching races

I watcched and recorded these times at finish line for the leader for the 5+ lap (307 m track) race: 10.6/53.3/138.8/225.1/310.1. They announced splits of 56.3/156.5/256.3

So I would not lose my sanity......
3,000 9 laps plus 237 meters
Mile 5 laps plus 74 meters
1,000 3 laps plus 79 meters
800 2 laps plus 186 meters
400 1 lap plus 93 meters
DMR 13 laps plus 9 meters

3:54.54 until 2013

This is just wild. A 3:51 mile was basically unfathomable for a runner in the NCAA until very recently. I would love to see the carnage that would unfold at nationals if someone took the whole field out in 1:55-1:56 - would we see another slew of times like this?

Proper appreciation for what the University of Washington did:

Joe Waskom 3:51.90
Brian Fay 3:52.03
Nathan Green 3:52.76
Kieran Lumb 3:53.83
Sam Ellis 3:53.84
Luke Houser 3:55.98
Aaron Ahl 3:57.94
Aidan Ryan 3:59.55

They have splits they announce. You can see the quarter mile marks. There are tall black rods/antennas with a light at the top. They flash green when it’s time for that specific rod to pick up a split. Also, it’s wonky with the track length but you get used to it. Quarter mile at 4 o clock, half at 1 o clock, three quarters at 8 or so.

5 guys at 3:53 or better, 6 at 3:55 and 8 under 4 on the same team. Sick.

Too bad it was not on a legal track.
