Cam Levins is my new favorite runner

What about that other SUU runner who finished 3rd a few years back, Jesson Baumgartner? What happened to him? I suspect Cam will have a similar future.

Eh we know Cameron can still be considered a young adult, while some of the Kenyan NCAA runners are closer to 30 than 20. Nobody cares about a grown man in his physical prime beating boys.

I'm pretty sure everyone would enjoy finding out who gotta say it is so that we could all laugh when we find out he is a 16 minute 5k guy.

P.S. 4th at nationals is huge, I'm sure you'd give both your balls for a chance at that. (assuming you had any) :P

Lawi will be a great pro soon enough, no shame in losing to a great runner regardless of how you train.

You're kind of a dipsh*t, aren't you?

His options were the following:

1. Run 100 mpw and get 40th

2. Run \"155+\" (160-175 in reality)and get 4th

He picked 4th and put in the work, end of story.

Also, you better believe he would have placed 2nd if he followed Derrick the whole way but now he doesn\'t have to be haunted by the question, \"what if?\" for the rest of his life.

Perfectly stated. CHEW ON THIS TROLLS!!!!!!

That says it all.

Word on the street is that if you read this three times and yell it out loud during a full moon it will transform trolls back to humans.

I must pay respects to Cam for being awesome, but I am a lakers fan. I like teams that win, and have every advantage to winning. So win you really look at it Lawi is the real man. He will for ever be my favorite runner. Just like I love kobe bryant, the yankees, and Notre Dame cheerleading. If you want to be cool like me I suggest you start think likewise.

Also The quote above is excellent. I read it twice and it de-trolled me by 40%

I couldn't disagree more. I am a highschool runner and I do just fine at 30 miles a week. I think if Cam ran 30 miles like me he would be better. 'Just an opinion'

Sorry I was just trying to anticipate another dumb comment.

Levins is the coolest runner because he works the hardest.

I hope you can upset even more people during track!

I noticed everyone was quoting this so I thought I would as well.

You forgot door number 3. He could have chosen to be a basketball player and never succeeded in life.

I just hope he goes for door number 4.

LEVINS FOR PRESIDENT OF THE USA!!!!!!!!!!!

End the tyrany of Oprah or who ever is in office right now. Merge Canada and America into a new world wide force that can oppose China.

Levins you are the Country's last hope!!!!

If that is what Levins is doing now where does he move from there?? Will he do 180 mpw or what???

What ever he does I hope he shows up Chris Derrick in Track

I wonder if where cam would have placed in other years. There is no way he would have beat chelenga but what about Rupp, McDougal, Rohatinsky, Ritz or Torres.

I think with his ability he would have taken down McDougal, Rohatinsky, Torres,

I think Rupp would ot kick him like he did chelenga, but maybe he would be up with Ritz and hall in the legenday battle.

He isn't afraid to take the pace, so in some of the years where the pace was slow he might have been able to break away and never come back.

I don't see him beating Rupp in that scenerio. I wonder if his kick would have been strong enough to take down chelega in that same year.

Definitely would have taken down rohat, good question about ritz?

It would be interesting to see the kinda kick he would have mustered in different conditions assuming he didn't try and surge away from the field.

If you knew either of them, you would realize you couldn't have 2 more different examples of a runner. Baumgartner was riddled with injuries (why he quit early) and only managed to work up to 60 mpw the week before NCAA's that year. That 3rd place was literally a modern-day miracle.

Canadians would never go for it. Merge with that sh!thole south of the border AKA USA?, Not a chance. You´re the ones that owe your life to the Chinese. Us Canadians are doing just fine. Hell, we even have an economy that can stand on it´s own two feet!

This "where does he go from here" idea has to be one of the dumbest things commonly believed in running. Where does he go? I don't know, he could run more miles, the same miles with more intensity, less miles with significantly more intensity, or change his workouts. There are so many more things to training than some straight mileage count.
