Calling it First Ben True FTW @ Standord 10k in sub 27:1X

I agree. I'd be surprised if he runs slower than 27:15. The dude is a machine.

I say slower. He is an XC and road beast, but isn't a track time trialer. Call him the anti-Rupp.

Ooh I really hope so. I want to see him at the world champs this august

He ran 13:02 last year in a time trail. I agree he is an XC and road beast. But honestly I think he can do anything if you put him in it.

Ben Trues ready to throw the F*CK down. 27:1X-26:55 depending on the pace. Will be #3 or #2 all time on the US 10k list by the end of the night.

Trues got bowling balls of steal and the Iron is hot.

Also pretty sure he isnt "really" self coached. Coogan (NewBalance) and True (Saucony) gota keep that on the down low for appearances.

Sub 27:1X??? What on earth are you on. You mean sub 27:20? What does sub 27:1X even mean.

Will thbe rabbits?

he's run well on the roads at 15k, so you'd think he could run a very good 10k. Low 27 is a good possibility for a 13:02 guy in great shape.

Will there be rabbits?

I don't think that the pace will be fast enough. I think he's capable though

Will there be rabbits?

Dream on, no way he uns that fast in that ac

I'm hoping for sub-27, but I think 27:20 is more realistic. There's a reason Solinsky's 26:59 was so special - that kind of performance is rare. Would love to see something like that again, though.

Stanford is for "B" teamers.

Let me know if the wins the Pre Classic.

Under 27:19.99 maybe? 27:09.99?

Ben True is going to run under 27:10? No underside prep mark? Really?

I hope so , but that is a wish list. If he ran 27:25 in early May it would be a great indication.

Not sure 10 different Americans have run that? Certainly not under 27:10

Haha exactly, I noticed the same thing

What's sub-27:1x? You can't have sub followed by a non-definite number, that's a double variable

Do you mean sub-27:11? Sub-27:19? You put an x next to 1 so you might mean sub 27:20? But no one knows, heck, you need differential equations to solve this

It's anything between sub-27:19 and sub-27:10. So he says Ben will run 27:18.99 or faster.

+1

Really? Your gona get caught up on this?

Alright I'll help you out. I guess you never got past algerbra 2. So listen up.

So on a line graph. I have establisher the value's of 27:1X(This is the upper limit. So less then or equal too.) So 27:19.999999999999999999 max repeating for flipping ever if you wish.

And the lower limit I put a difinitive no lower then 26:55.

So therefore on a line graph. My prediction is Ben True will run between 27:19.99999999999999999999999999 and 26:55.

Happy?
