How much do you think an 8 lap mondo track would have benefitted Coghlan?
The last comment about El G is also interesting...
I saw this while I was waiting for a haircut. Interesting interview. I am also curious how fast Coghlan could've gone at today's Armory or a similarly fast track.
I guess we should be shocked that Deadspin has an interview with Coughlan, and it's better than any track website.
Great interview. It sounds like he was having a blast-
I'm starting the rumor you were juiced.
Yeah, juiced on Budweiser [laughing].

Our post-race meal was beer.
EAMONN, THATS WHY GALEN IS A WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY BETTER RUNNER THAN YOU WERE ON YOUR DAYS.

Another Coghlan quote from the interview:
"Jesus, I don't even know Galen Rupp—I'm removed from the inner sanctum of track now—but I don't think for one minute he's doing something illegal."
Eamonn was a miler. His 5&10 PRs are 13:19 and 28:19. I don't know if Galen is clean, but it should surprise no one that a sub 13/sub 27 guy can run a 5 * mile workout faster than Coghlan.
