Pre did run 3:54 when the WR was 3:51. And how many homegrown Americans have ever held a distance AR in college. Pre had five! Best American collegian ever.

Hanging near the back? hahahahahahahahahaha
I don't think that would have ever happened.
If in open races as HS runner, Pre was probably good for 1:51+ /4:01 /8:34+, so very similar to Centrowitz and McChesney.
Yes OP, you can progress that much in 1600 in one year, provided you pick up
also 52 4x 400 speed.
