Also-think back to prior years with Rupp, Hill, True, Jenkins, Fisher, Knight, Chelimo, McDonald and others indoors. Both Chelimo and Farrah share an indoor PR of 13:09, and almost the entire OAC team ducked under that.
Nuguse just equaled Rupp's all time best indoors, and Rupp was a 3:50/7:30 guy at the time. If Nuguse runs that again outdoors, he's under 12:50. El Guerrouj was a 12:50 guy with (rumored) 1:44 wheels.
Beamish is right at Jager's all time outdoor 5K best, which was run in the thick of his steeple rampage years. Jager's 1500 best was 3:32; don't tell me Beamish can't.
I'd bet if you asked Klecker to choose between 12:54 in the winter, and 12:54 right around championship season, he'd choose the latter.
Garcia Romo? IDK. One-off, I'll say.
Mills has run 3:47, 3:30 and 12:58 in the last six months.
There's a lot to write home about with this OAC team if you DON'T compare it to last year's race. Broaden the perspective, recognize the month, recognize WE DON'T KNOW THEIR TRAINING CYCLES, and give NAZ Elite/DarkSky their props.
