Alright guys, It seems like there were four guys on the sub1:50 and 9:00 HS list. Now I want the college athletes (These will include International Athletes of course)

1. Sub 1:50 800m, sub 3:40 1500m OR/4:00mile, AND sub 14:00 5k. (IT would be really nice if you guys can find someone that went sub 29:20 10k to add to that tough first list. I want AT LEAST 2 of the 4, but I KNOW someone that's sub14:00 is likely sub 29:20 10k.

2. Sub 1:47 AND sub 3:40 OR 4:00. I was gonna make this sub1:46 but I'll let more on the list. First person that comes straight to head is Andrew Wheating.

3. Sub 13:40, sub 29:20, AND sub 3:40 1500m. I know Fernandez did the 1st and 3rd, but I'm not sure of his 10k PR.

This is gonna be real interesting!!

Let me know if I should make changes like 2 and maybe 3. When you list them, put the number in which they fall into the category after there name so I'll know.

Vincent Rono makes every list except sub 1:47, and 13:40

1:48, 3:37, 13:43, 28:50

Rupp

Joe Falcon

From this site:

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1066619/index.htm

..."Falcon's extraordinary range—he has run a 1:49 800-meter relay leg indoors, 3:56.77 for the mile indoors, 13:45.91 in the 5,000 meters and 28:34.3 in the 10,000"...

BTW he also ran 1:52, 4:06, 8:53 in high school.

Louie Quintana

1:46/3:40/13:53 - 4th NCAA XC

I have a feeling when all is said and done, Nick Willis is going to win this one.

Jefferson Bros? Jennings? Cragg ran very few if any 8s.

Good point. For some reason, I was weighting the 800 as worth more than the 10k. Rupp wins by a bit on the 5k, and Willis wins by a quite a bit on the 1500. Hard to compare, but I'd say that Rupp's collegiate 10k is slightly better than Willis' collegiate 800.

Other than that, I'm not sure. Cragg never popped a fast 800 that I know of. I wonder how some of the Stanford guys of 5-10 years ago would have fared in the 800/1500/mile/5k category.

Lee Emanuel from New Mexico: 1:49:xx, 3:37/3:57, and 13:31. He made 3/4 on the first part 31:04xc

AJ Acosta(2/4) 3:39/3:53, 13:50. No 800m time and 31:01xc

2nd Part:

Fred Samoei (Alabama) 1:45 and 3:58

Andrew Wheating 1:45 and 3:37/3:51 (not counting his post-college performance)

3. I should have put sub 13:40, sub 29:20 AND 3:40 and let them get 2out of 3. Or should I keep it

OMG those times are so fast! i couldnt dream of running them. lol

Andrew Bumbalough has gone 1:49, 3:38, and 13:30

also went 29:39 to finish 8th at NCAAs in XC... worth noting

David Torrence
