Fernandez could'nt hold a torch to Ryan Gregson

World Youths 07 I believe - 5th in the final.

Oh, and for the maggots claiming Gregson is on here talking himself up, I'm a friend of his, and he isn't like that at all. You see, here in Australia, we don't suffer from the seemingly inherent US superiority complex, so unlike some other people (AJ Acosta et al) his personal outlook and opinion very much precludes the accusation.

Also, as flow said earlier, and he is also a friend of Ryan, he only runs 115km a week, and staying with Ian Hatfield is in his best interests - they've been together since Ryan was seven. I doubt he'd develop that sort of a bond with another coach.

While Ryan knows Bideau, I very highly doubt he'll go anywhere with him, as he already has a sponsorship, and Bideau's athletes performance in Beijing left a tad to be desired..

not from the deep south then? hilarious btw, nice pickup!

you have no idea.

Gregson is with Nic Bideau. Nic manages Gregson, getting him connections with Nike now. Ask him yourself if u r such a good friend.

Gregson didnt do this on his own. It was through Bideau. I am sure doesnt want to coach him. But i am sure when it comes to sign a deal he will be the man in australia to get him the most money from the shoe company's.

Fernandez on the other hand will get 6 times more when he signs a deal. JUst the way the college system works.

oh but we love herman, he is so good looking and so fast....

but only the 2nd fastest "white" boy in the world.

SNAP!

Think he is managed by Bideau and coached by Skippy Hatfield still. Not 100% though.

Take five mate

Fernandez is a long distance runner. He's nowhere near a talent at 1500 as Gregson.

Exactly. Fernandez only ran a 3:56 on a 200 meter indoor track, while Gregson blasted a 3:54 equivalent on a 400 meter track. Clearly Fernandez, being younger and running equivalent times, is not even close to Gregson.

Obviously.

Idiot.

Oh and I'm not trying to say Fernandez is better than Gregson, just that you are an idiot.

at least fernandez knows how to win his fast track races hahahahahah AYE MATE

So it sounds like gregson has been dragged to some snazzy times whilst getting his fanny smacked.

German has been winning races in fine times.

Not sure if you guys heard about a cross country race german ran.

Here's the breakdown. 8K (4x2K loops). German runs with two challengers (who have each just run 13:44 & 13:46 indoors) and just in the last 2K puts about 20 seconds on second place and 35 seconds on 3rd.

Can you comprehend what that means for his 5K fitness right now?

He then runs a 3K SICK the following week and wins it in 7:47.

I hate to say it, but while Gregson is a fine runner, German is well ahead of him right now. He could beat him at 1500 and he could mop him at anything over that.

I predict 25 seconds or better ahead at junior world cross.

Why would German ever be in a situation to hold a torch toward anyone? Let alone Gregson... That's just a stupid phrasing.

Gregson- 3:54 1600 Outdoor

German- 3:55 mile Indoors

Yeah German really sucks in comparison.

They're both great athletes, quit trying to say one is lightyears ahead of the other. Its pretty apparent that they are on close to an equal level as of late. Case Closed.
