I've run 3:51 for the 1500, where do you think that places me among all U.S. men over the last 12 months...

76th
400th
Go through every NCAA Division I II III conference results and count how many guys have ran faster than you.
Then add, maybe 100(?) more places to guys who aren't in NCAA to account for high schoolers, and pros.
Well it's hard to say but it's probably well into the 400-600 range. I mean, my school has 3 freshman who have run 3:49-3:45, and i know countless other runners who have run that in the last few weeks.
Just did a quick look through track shark's performance lists and here's what I came up with:
NCAA DI: 119 guys under 3:48, probably another 80-90 between 3:48 and 3:51.
NCAA DII: 22 guys under 3:51
NCAA DIII: 4 guys under 3:51
NAIA: 3 guys under 3:51
JC: 8 guys under 3:51
High School: probably about 10 guys
Post Collegiate: probably about 80-90
Total: 330-350 guys under 3:51, so if you're mid 3:51 you're probably about 400 (my original guess).
well if you buy tilastopaja.net paid service there is a list of usa 1500 meter runners.
351.08 = 260th fastest usa time this year.
351.99 = 299th fastest usa time this year
for the year 2007
351.00 = 315th best time in usa (by an american) for 1500
351.98 = 362nd best time in usa (by an american) for 1500
Of course, this being letsrun, add in another 400 who post here and claim to have run that time.
Oh, and they all make over $300,000.00 per year as well at their day jobs.
you forgot that we all have about 37 gorgeous women that want to date us.

Wow I guess my 3.46 isn't as bad as I thought.
I ran 3:52 and had borderline self-esteem problems over being what I thought was obscenely slow. It never occurred to me that there probably weren't 400 people faster than me in a country of 300+ million.
Is that why you decided to grow weed in your Mom's house?
It's not as good as you think.

if you give me your exact time and the year you ran it, (within the last 10 years) i can give your exact time.
