Could I Go Pro?

You have a shot with your middle-distance talent and at your age I would suggest you take it. Youth only comes around once.

you run college? if so stick with college, because many people who go to the next level arent very successful at first, so make sure you got a back up, dont just drop out of college immediately, but have a plan

Hahah, just kidding. You think I would be asking for advice on LetRun if I ran 3:39? lolz, you guys are crazy

good one....how a 3 39 ask for advice for these letsrun loosers, that can barely run a sub 17 for the 5k.

Except there are alot of people who read these boards that run quite a bit faster than 3:39.

"losers"

A lot? I wouldn't be so positive about that. Maybe I'd say 'some.' Maybe I'd limit that to 'a few.'

Did you forget agout this little promise?

still troll or no troll, don't think he'd make megabucks off that 5K time.800 is passable though.

Ludwig is that you?

You could have been a (troll) contender. Why did you pull the plug so quickly?

You could have gotten into your training like that college guy trying to break 15:00. Then you could have slowly and seamlessly worked in obscure training elements like running around drained swimming pools ala skate boarders to improve leg speed, or backwards uphills or eating earthworms during recovery intervals.

My God, man! What you could have accomplished!

yeah the second post wasen't me I apologize for not replying sooner and setting that straight. The reason I ask this question is because I have actually ran these times but haven't gotten any sponsorship offers. I'm not sure if this is because I'm from a small Eastern European country or that I'm simply not good enough to get offers coming to me and have to go out there to get the offers myself. So any more advice would be very helpful and the advice everyone has already gave has been for the most part helpful.

PS-I will NOT post again just to try to avoid any confusion between me and people trying to be me. But please keep the advice coming.

Oh, and one more thing, I forgot to mention I have sex with lithuanian slut twice a week to improve my leg turnover. and the 14:19 5k that I ran was in my farming boots when i was 12. other than that I ran 1:46 at the national championships in August.

If you were an American there would be no question. I know slower guys (not by much) with some sort of deal. But if you are running those times you have probably raced against people with contracts. Talk to them, ask about meeting their agent and see what happens. Not going to get a sponsor on letsrun, just trolls.

and i like to eat my own poops

Yep, like 300000 other NCAA athletes, in something other than sport.

yup, like EPO lagat, webb, teg, and SENECA LASSITER

I run about 120 miles each and every week and I have a 1600 PB of 4:52 and a 5k XC PB of 15:54. Can I go pro some day?
