Official Day 1 BU John Thomas Terrier Classic Discussion Thread

Cranny looked very good sub 4:21 from the front. Chamberlain of BYU 4:26

And now massive carnage in heat 2 approaching 400

Breaks Mary Cain's 4:24.11 facility record from 2014.

I thought she might be able to put something down fast after her 4:26 anchor leg in the DMR last year. I think this makes her a contender for the NCAA mile title. Does this move the needle on BYU's indoor title chances? Can they put something together in the DMR/3k/5k with their XC team?

#5 All time NCAA btw

Nice - does that mean BYU women have the top time in the country in both the 800 and mile with Hunter's win earlier today? Still early in the season - but cool if that is true.

Not quite. Wilma Nielsen (spell?) from Oregon ran 4:25 last week I believe.

nope Wilma Neilson 4:25+ last week

Wilma Nielsen (Oregon) - 4:25.89 last week @ Dr. Sander

Jennings in 2nd had a 4-second lifetime best (at least looking at WA profile) at 4:25.32.

Bosshard has Jennings at 4:25 and Coburn at 4:26 (converted from 4:33 altitude). Not bad.

Good deal - thanks

Hiltz 8:32.5. Bunnage and May sub 8:45

Great start for Cranny, 4:20!

5k strength > 1500m wheels today with Bunnage gapping May in the final 200. I hope they run it back in Boston.

well actually May Gapped Bunnage around 2000 but could not sustain and eventually Bunnage passed her in the last 400.

...in March!

Well he's not arguing, he's just insulting you for saying something so stupid. You didn't give an argument, you just made a claim with no evidence or argument to justify it. A claim made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence (ie calling you a retard)

Bunnage now 6th performer/7th performance on a-t collegiate indoor 3000 list (first 5):

Tuohy 8:35.20
Markezich 8:40.42
Valby 8:41.50 & 8:42.29
Schweizer 8:41.60
Barringer 8:42.03

If Amy can do this, what about Doris, Hilda and Pamela when they go all out?

Re: Kosgei, we'll find out in an hour or so as she's racing the 3000 at U-Dub.

I actually think we will see a resurgence of willis this year. I think coming out of highschool and winning ncaa’s off the bat put a lot of presssure on her she sort of struggled with mentally. I think getting second at outdooors last year was a very good sign, and she had a great under distance race last wknd in seattle. I dont think running so-so in her first 800 since june is cause for too much alarm and expect her to get better throughout the season.

whittaker had tape on her knee in her mile and washington and again today, hopefully nothing serious. Her mile wasn’t her best and her 800 obviously wasnt on par with where she was spring/summer but im sure can take a second after your first global championship experience, especially when its an olympic final

Yes i wonder if may had stayed behind bunnage earlier instead of going out with hiltz and hall she might have been able to outkick her. Im sure one of the big 3 will make ncaa’s a fast race though so might be a hold idea to practice holding on anyways
