If you mean ISU as in Indiana State, no the coures is not fast, it's a good, honest course. No steep hills but lots of rolls and turns. The footing is shit as well, so those used to running on smooth golf courses only will suffer.
I believe the ISU couse is fast judging by some of the times run there by average runners.
If you compare the times of those who ran at Griak and at ISU, they averaged to be about 19 seconds faster at ISU than at Griak. Only Bowler from Nebraska ran slower at ISU and that was only by a second. The guys from the NAval Academy all ran quite faster at ISU, and the other Nebraska fellas ran faster as well.
I've never run griak, does anyone know how the ISU course compares to VCP, or michigan, or franklin park?
Ran faster by a second actually!
I stand corrected. You're right I must have flip-flopped the two. Bowler did run one second faster. So nobody ran slower at ISU than at Griak. Yeah I'd say it's a somewhat fast course (ISU)
Of course ISU is easier than VCP or Michigan - those two courses are a pain in the ass. Michigan is a hilly sluggfest and VCP with Cemetray and those damned back hills are ridiculous. ISU would be most like, out of the three, Franklin Park.
I don't find it to be fast, but it's not one of the tougher courses either. I ran 30:58 there I think at Districts last year and 30:09 at Furman. Draw from it what you will.
Compared to Franklin Park, it's probably a lot longer, it is an actual 8000m course. I'd say it's a little harder than Furman....though at first glance it does not appear that way.
