There have been some very fast times run out of NJ this past week at state sectionals in the 1600. Especially North 2, Group 4 6th place was 4:17. Right now some of the top guys going into the race have to be lwendowski, udland, Gorman, Harper and other guys. First it will be interesting to see who gets past the Group 4 1600 this weekend, that in it self will be some race to watch.
Represent. We kill it in the 1600. Post.some clips if you've seen them.
Udland has a very good chance at the win. He ran 4:12.00 last week with a closing 800 of about 2:02. By the way, there are a lot more in contention than lewendowski, Udland, Gorman, and Harper. Chris Marco has run 4:13 and 1:52. George Kelly came in second at indoors. Also, Chris Hatler ran 4:12 earlier this season with a 60 second closing lap and Rob Napalatono was right on him the whole time.
Did Harper run the 3200 at sectionals? If he did, I would be surprised if he didn't run that at MOC because his chances at winning that are much bigger than winning the 1600.
Seeing Cheserek ran the 800 and 1600 at the State Prep race wouldn't he be favored in the 1600? He also just beat Udlund at counties IIRC.

His school isn't NJSIAA sanctioned, he can't run sectionals, groups, or MoC
Whereis the kid that ripped it up this indoors from piscataway. 409 +149?

Tim Ball? he's injured and out for the season unfortunately. didn't run 4:09 and 1:49 though
Ben malone ran 1:49 indoors, but is from Pascack Valley. He is running the 800 because he has dream mile two days after MOC.
Too bad. Maybe relay splits. Expecting some ballet races in the next 8 days

What is a "ballet race"?

A ballet race is exactly what is sounds like. It's kind of like chess-boxing but with running and ballet.
Well that makes sense seeing he didn't do XC MOC in the fall. Thanks
Nick Fogarty of Livingston has got some extreme wheels. Every 1600 that he has been in this year has been a sit and kick affair so his times aren't out there but he races like a champ.
Fogarty will be the surprise of the year.
Fogarty stinks. He peaked indoors with his 4:16.9 and now he's stuck at 4:19. 4:19 will not be a factor. Even if he runs 4:16 again, he will not be a factor. He will need something like 4:12 or 4:13 to even place.
The way the new jersey 16 runners have been running this season it can really be anyone's race. The competition is so high, and so close that I really believe in any given race anyone could have the kick it takes to win.
Both of the 419s that he has run this season have been closed in 202 for the last 8 and under 59 for the last 4. Fogarty knows how to race and isn't some retarded time trialist like Udland, harper or Lewandowski. And for the record he ran a relay split in 416 this year where he out kicked udland who everyone is praising right now. FOGARTY IS KING
excuse me but when is 4:19 make you stink?

Fogarty split 4:17 high in that race. Blake split a 4:12 mid. Last time I checked, 4:17 is not even competitive with 4:12. To even place, Fogarty is going to have to outkick Lewandowski, Udland, Gorman, Marco, Hatler, or Napalotono. Lewandowski has run 1:51 for the half. Udland closed in 2:03 last week off of 2:08. Gorman ran the same splits as Udland and has sub 50 second 400 speed. Marco ran 1:52 for 800 and ran a 4:13 closing in 2:02. Hatler has 1:52 wheels. And, Napalatono made CBA look like a bunch of hobby joggers the way he blew by them last week in the 800. He has also run 4:14 closing in 61. Fogarty should just hope to qualify for MOC considering he is only the 9th seed from his group. He really can't compete with the best in the state right now.

you not bringing up ben malone already shows how unintelligent you are. you also brining up performance lists also proves your unintelligence because they are all different races. both you guys are idiots because there is no way nick should be a favorite he got 5th indoors for the race of his life. yes nick fogarty should make MOC hes a good racer and is always in the mix of things, but has yet to show he can win a big race. udland has also had that problem at MOC where he just doesnt show up to where he should be and if hes smart will run the 32. 800 wheels does mean a lot yes, but i know a bunch of guys who havent run 155 and still out kick people.
I try to put in a good word for a kid who I feel is way under mentioned and I'm shot down immediately with you saying the kid sucks. Clearly he does not suck and clearly he has not peaked. Fogarty Shows up to race, that's all I'm saying.
