Solinsky has done nothing to indicate he could even come close to approaching the AR in the 3k. 7:35 would be a really good day for him.
ahah, YO - I don't think I've read a single post from you that you weren't bringing a runner down in some way. More often then not quite blatantly.
What's your deal? Stuck on an old PR? Gave it up and now you wish you hadn't? Chill out man, life is not that bad.

Solinsky may not be in AR form, on the other hand he may not be that far off it in a great race. He'll be in over his head here, but if guys are finishing in 7:30 I could see him getting down to 7:33-7:34.
