The man is practically a horse.
And comparing a 1:44.7 person to a 1:41.0 person is like trying to compare a 10.5 100m to a sub 10 100m. I'm not saying Jock doesn't have potential, but if he had run the race .1 smarter he would have won it.
And there are probably 10 guys in the world that will break 1:43 this year, maybe 1 american is in that.
