Centrowitz entered in Paris 1500!!

Shoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot!!!!!

this may be better than the wc final - holy crap

That's way too many people.

There's alot of people but hopefully it strings out fast! im sure the rabbit is set to go through in something around 55-56 and 1:52-1:53.

I don't think he'll get the A standard...

I don't either, but he doesn't need it. A "B" will suffice.

he about to get his ass blazed

And he should. A 3:40 guy doesn't belong in that field.

Frankly, I'm more interested in seeing Mrs. Montano (Alysia Johnson) against Mr. Semenya, Wariner vs Gonzales, and how well Lemaitre can do against Bolt.

Centro is not a 3:40 guy. He ran 3:36. Yeah I know he did it a coupla years back, but he looks even stronger now. Crazy strong.

Centro is the national champ over 1500m and his PR is 3:36, which is not the slowest in the field. How do you feel about it now? :/

I'm not sure what about him makes you think he's a 3:40 guy.

Why would anyone say he is going to get "blazed"...he looked extremely comfortable winning USATF. It looked like he was jogging. I can see 3:32/33 coming.

I think many people are going to be surprised by what Centro is going to do in the next month leading up to Worlds.

If you think about it,

He ran 3:36 2 years ago.

All year this season he has only raced for the W, therefor his times have not been blazing.

But, now he has learned much on racing tactics, which will be good when looking at championship races.

Now look at Wheating last year:

His pr was 3:36 as well.

He was for the most part going for the W every time.

Wheating hadnt ran an all out 800 in 2 years before last summer.

An was never truly tested in a timetrial 15 until Monaco.

Centro adn Wheating have very similare resumes except Centro has little 800 background, but that does not mean he cant run a 1:45 which i think he can and will this summer.

I predict 3:31.5 for Centro. Winner going 3:29.8 and wheating running 3:32 with Manzano in 3:33. lagat 3:33 as well.

Wheating is going to roll 3:29

Wheating will be as interesting to follow as Centro. Is he going to continue to run behind a pack in lane 2 or 3 the entire race? Or perhaps he really was set back a lot with his calf injury in the winter and doesn't have it? At this level of pace these questions should be answered somewhat.

Fan boys are going strong in this thread.

I say 3:35 tops for Centro.

1. They were jogging

2. I would hope he would look smooth in a race that consisted of a 1100m warm up and a 400m race won in 50.x

People were saying the same thing about wheating going 3:30. Then it happened!!!

My only thought to agree with you is that its his first european race, but I still stand strong next to a fast performance out of him. 3:31.5 is if all goes perfect. A safe preiction would be 3:33. But im hoping for the best! 3:31 centrow and wheating work together!! and ROLL

At the finish line D-bag...
