Back at the US Olympic trials in 2012, Beach was I'm pretty sure 3:05 at the bell in the 1500, definitely no slower than 3:06. Dude would have CRUSHED the decathlon 1500 World Best (3:58.7) if he hadn't been so selfless and pulled up in the home straight for Eaton.
Still one of my all time favourite race videos, so emotional with the crowd cheering on Eaton and then that final 100m:

Here's hoping he has a breakout season either this year or the next.
