DMR Div 2 can we make it?

Probably not. You just don't have the fire power. And to be honest, you're not even really that close. But, feel free to prove me wrong by doing it.

3:05- Generous

0:49

1:52- Generous

4:18- Generous

That is a 10:04 without any .xx which mean that is closer to a 10:05.5. You are a provisional team on a good day which is 10:07.6.

This reminds me of the DMR at nationals two years ago in Houston.

1st place, Colorado School of Mines. Splits:

1200-about 3:04 or so.

400- about 48

800- about 1:54

1600- anchored by a redshirt freshman, who's high school pr was 4:23. Man former ASCer, you look bad.... especially because you team got beat, by a team almost identical to this team your saying has no chance to qualify.

Sorry I guess your ASC team just didn't have the fire power???

When it comes down to it you need a mile guy. Your guy might have a breakthrough race and go 4:12. He does that you are in. Every year it seems like 10:00 is the barrier.

First off, I have no ties to ASC. Even though that time won, I'm sure they ran ALOT faster to get in. As with many relays, DMR is harder to qualify and get in than it is to place.

the time is fast enough to get in, especially with flat track conversion (under 10 unconverted). At nationals it only appears easier to place high because the races are tactical, and some people have to run prelims. You guys have no clue...

just because a 14:30 5k makes all american at nationals does not mean any 14:30 5k guy could do it if they qualified, the guy who runs that time off a slow opening pace is probably a 14:10 guy. As it is in the DMR, the first leg is tactical, and so is the anchor.
