Andy Butchart is talented, you are not.
I believe this is the entire point in questioning within this thread. If we add up the number of 1500m races run over the past 5 years, we have 30+ different races. And these yeild a 3:44.57 from May 2015, which he won by .3 over a guy who, well, I'll leave you to click on Chris Watson's name. Yes, that was 15 months ago.
Is Butchart talented enough to suddenly at 24 be a world player when only a year ago at 23 he wasn't talented enough to be owning his regional competition? His legs have been very good to him since Christmas, so thank Scottish Santa I guess.
