Holy Smokes, the Oregon runners are lighting it up in Vancouver BC meet:
Look at the men's 800 (Mac Fleet) and the men's 1500 (Trevor Dunbar and Patrick Todd). Dunbar is the equivalent of a 3:53 mile and Todd is equivalent of a 3:55. I did not realize that Fleet was such a quality 800meter runner since he won the NCAA 1500 meters.

lol, as a Friend of Canadians, I gotta tell you Victoria is no where near Vancouver. Vancouver was last week. Additionally, not sure your conversions are accurate.

Sorry about that. When you live in Oklahoma, every town in Canada seems the same. You are correct, Dunbar's time only converts to a 3:55 mile, and Todd's to about a 3:57. Still very good times for collegians.
Try 3:56 high and 3:59 mid...
That makes 3 Oregon guys returning next year who all have run 3:38 this season in Brett Johnson, Dunbar, and Fleet. Adding to that is still Elkaim at 3:42, Chris Brewer and Colby Alexander at 3:44, with newcomers like Sam Prakel, Jake Leingang, and Edward Cheserek looks like they will be fully loaded with milers.
