Advanced Track & Field Coaches Clinic

someone please take a video of the two sessions with jim ryun and post to youtube
Remember, this is a high school oriented clinic. It's not likely to be advanced regardless of what they say in the promotions.
someone ask Ryun some questions :
- especially how fast he thinks his 400 speed wouda been at his peak if fully rested & on a '70s synthetic
- how fast he thought he couda run that 1500wr of 3'33.1 if he hadn't jogged the initial 300 in 46.5 ( 62.0s pace ), hadn't had to run wide out in lane 2 from 300 - 400 & if keino hadn't dropped pace from ~ 56.0 for 1 lap followed by ~ 58.0, the pace he maintained to ~ 1200m
- how much slower were dirt tracks for 400m compared to '70s synthetic
- what he thought he couda run that 1'44.3wr when just a kid, ill with -ve splits of ~ 53+/51+ & still with fatigue of a 1'50 prelim in his legs coupla hours before, if fully rested & 100% healthy & with fast 1st lap
- how fast he thought he couda run in dusseldorf when he had that incredible 36.5/50+ finish in a 3'38, if it had been flat-out race
- if he believes he was a faster 800 guy in '67 compared to '66 when he actually set the wr
- anything else
this is a golden opportunity to get opinions from the horse's mouth
if you can't ask him any of these, please just tell him he has helluva lot of fans on letsrun & perhaps ask him to read this :

here are comments from a guy who isn't even a fan !!! :
"Ryun's performance definitely was Beamonesque - at least much better than what I have expected he was capable of."
"For me it puts all the other performances from the all-time greats of the last decades in a new context."
"I don't know if any runner in history could have beaten Ryun on this day"
