Well, it is all a prespective
Rono was 26 when crushing WRs , so yes, he was GREAT.
The WR was I think, 13:06
and that was a while ago. Ches runs 3:55 relay legs AND won NCAA XC back to back, and just missed at 13:18 as a frosh at 5K.
I have seen and heard about this kid from HS, you want to say he is old?
he ran 1:49 scratch 4:02, 8:39, he has wheels of fortune, as they say, Malmo would say Henry could have run 3:33.x I guess? To me that would be a strech
Ches could probably run that as he has split 3:55 only acelerating last 300
