Montana State University runner Patrick Casey runs sub 4 at 5000 feet. A solo effort. Converts to 3:55 or so after altitude.

3:59 at 5000' converts to 3:58 at sea level, not 3:55. The shorter the distance, the less it's affected. Still a sick run, but just saying.

actually converts to 3:54.59, (well according to the ncaa)
Converts to 3:58 according to Jack Daniels. haha.
The track I do most of my workouts on is actually at like 4950' and I've found Daniels to be very accurate. Hard to gauge mountain runs at 10k' like I often do, but he's seemed accurate for me at 5000' on a track.
Ya cause last year when P casey came down to altitude he only went from 4:04 to 4:00.1 so I suppose we can only expect a 3:55... I suppose most of you dumbasses will think thats a weak ass time eh!?
The guy ran a sub 4 SOLO. Sea level, altitude, indoor, outdoor, whatever. Never runs it again, so what, never wins another race, so what. He did it!
I am impressed with this guy. He did this solo in Montana. From what I hear Montana has gotten a ton of snow and cold this year - how did he get a chance to train??
This guy is a champ! 3rd last year at nats in the mile and now an adjusted 3:54! I think he can win nats in the mile
