The future looks incredibly bright for Gregson. 6th fastest all-time 1500m run by a 19 year-old that wasn't born in Africa.

3:34.27 - Gert-Jan Liefers (NED) 1988
3:34.74 - Steve Cram (GBR) 1980
3:34.86 - Reyes Extevez (ESP) 1996

3:34.98 - Liefers (NED) 1988
3:35.42 - Ryan Gregson (AUS) 2010
Those guys amounted to a lot.

Actually they did you f'ing retard.
Cram won 2 world championships and had a silver in the olympics, went 142.88/329/346/451.
Reyes won 2 WC's bronze medals, and a silver indoors at the WC's, and went 3:30.
Liefers ended up being a 3:32 guy and holding almost all his countries records.
Igor was clearly the least succesful but he did improve by a half a second.
He closed in 54, set a huge PB by over two full seconds in a non-time-trial race, and kicked to win. Very, very impressive.

True, but we must remember Igor was a hunchback. And he was wearing flats.

No shit you f***ing moron, that's what I said.
Aside from 1983, what WC did Cram win?

None.
Jim Ryun was 20 and a few month when he ran a world record 3:33 in 1967.
Just give credit where credit is due,please.A very good performance from a talented up and comer Aussie.
Very average run for Bincoe, when will this guy throw in the towel he must be like 40.
Waaaaiiit a second. Who are you? Nobody? You'd get lapped by cram on any distance over 10 laps?
Then Shutuppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp, bitch.
Call me crazy, but I think Gregson can go sub-3:34 this year. He's only going to improve, and that 53 last lap means that he has more in the tank.
I hope he gets into a big European 1500m race and goes all-out.
just to remind you, German Fernanez is also 19 years old. Let's see what he can do.

GF at the end of the day is not a miler, ultimately you will have to judge him on his 5k times. Perhaps GF will run 3:35 one day, but probably not in the next year or two.
