So despite McMillan being accurate within 20 miles of racing - all in line EXACTLY with his PRs, 2M, 5K, 10K, 1/2 marathon you insist that McMillan is somehow flawed, yet the IAAF tables have predicted nothing, nada, zero.
OK. Lets plug in everyone’s 2 mile PRs and see what McMillen comes up with. This should be good.
