should be interesting. European debut for both (outside of Championships) I think, maybe.

Results later?
Is that Bruce Willis, or Arnold's big bro'?
is that on the results link, they refer to the wheelchair 1500 as "rollstuhl" and the javelin as "speer"
and you want it all in English, I suppose?
If Willis lands in the same heat as Brannen and Khadevis Robinson, he will beat both.
or get last because he does not deserve to be in that heat
Willis likely does not belong in the fast heat, because he obviously does not have the P.R. that the other top competitors do. But, I base my prediction in no small part to the fact that he beat Brannen, Sylvester, Etoot and Sullivan in his only 800m this year.
It is also because he has been unbelievably impressive and explosive in his races. Except for a fall, he just keeps winning impressively and looks able to run much faster than he has to this point.

I guess Willis would not have beaten Robinson (if he did, then the guy would be ready for a prime Sullivan)....but I bet he would have taken Brannen in the slower heat.
Basically what I am saying is I think Willis is a world-beater in the 1500m right now, but hasn't proven it yet. I hope that he gets a fast 1500m race or two before long, so he can show us what he is truly capable of.
damn, gary reed 1:45... where'd that come from? is he the new national leader?
Yes second all time.
behind tadili?
No Freddie Williams. 1:45.13. Tadila is 1:45.48.
You are blathering again.
What, if you have the info handy, was Bill Crothers best, probably back in 1964.

Bernard Lagat is one of the few Kenyans with a real age...
Crothers-1:45.69. Lasted from 64 to 88 when Hoogewerf went 1:45.4. Still number 5.
