the letter why wrote:
You mean like Ben True, who became the first American to win a Diamond League 5K last year?
Or Ryan Hill, the guy who just won a silver medal at World Indoors?
Which of those non-world class guys are you talking about?
Both of whom Rupp beat at last year's world champs, by the way. In his second tough race, but their first.
I'm no Rupp apologist, but come on...
Get your memory checked. Rupp was the first American at Worlds 5k last year. In his SECOND tough race.
