Is it just me or did this track season just get 10x more exciting? Do you guys think the American Record will go down in the 10k? If so, how low?
I'm going to guess a 26:51 is in our future, because I don't think Solinsky is going to run the 10k this year and Ritz and Rupp probably could get in a quick race at Stanford.
Ritz is going to have the rest of this winter and early spring to just relax and get some healthy miles under his belt, how exciting is that?
lagat will run 26:45 for the AR

I think when this year is done, provided all of these runners run a 10k, our lists will look like this:
1. Ritz 26:49
2. Rupp 26:55 (if Rupp and Ritz are in the same race, Rupp wins in a 26:57).
3. Nelson 27:11
I don't think our 5k record will drop much below 12:54 if at all. I think the floodgates are opened a bit now that Solinsky ran sub 27. I think there will be a couple people who will take a shot at that record and those two will likely be from the same training group.
