Serious question why do they always seem to produce great 800m and 1500m runners. They got Baddeley at the moment who props to him is probably best miler in the world right now and Lancashire coming through. In the 8 they lack high quality but with the sheer number of guys hitting 1.50 there they gotta have a world class breakout soon.
troll? In the 80's this might have been reasonable, but to say Baddeley is the best miler in the world right now is stupid. How about Ramzi and Lagat? Korir is probably better as well. Realistically, he's on par with other second tier guys Webb(possibly), Choge(possibly) etc.

Welcome to the last 20 years of British running.
At the professional level, 1:50 is nothing. And Baddeley is one guy, who as others have mentions, is most definitely not the best miler in the world right now.
Why is Duran Duran so popular?
Why is VHS beating Beta out of the home video market?
Why is America boycotting the Moscow Olympics?
The answer to the OP is "They're not"

Haha, oh man. That's some good stuff right there.
Seriously, though, the brits have this new young stud named Steve Cram coming up through the ranks, supposedly he's something special. I think this is what the OP was referring to.
