Do you really think a college athlete is that dumb if I don't teach them that in HS? I talk to HS athletes all the time about the difference between 1600 and the mile as well as the 3200 and the 2 mile. But we don't need to convert their times to something that most of them won't be running. We also don't convert their 1600 times to 1500 to help them in college either. We also don't convert 3200 to 5000 or 3000 Steeple.
