      • This kid is going to be good. He has plenty of speed, is still a relatively low mileage guy and is tough as nails

      • I agree...This kid may medal at the Olympics one day....Faster than Rupp at low end and similar low mileage in college

      • I read that he ran 35m/wk in high school and has only worked his way up to 60 m/week this year.

        Is he going to break down like Leavins has?

      • Well of course he has talent... they all do. There is a reason they are good at sports. Especially running.

      • Low mileage because he is fragile, or low mileage because he doesn't need to run more to be successful (like Lagat)?

        Low mileage because he was late to join the sport and b/c he doesn't need more to be successful.

        Lawi Lalang had way more in the toolbox, and he hasn't sniffed a medal (regardless of having to go through Kenyan qualifying just to get there). Chelenga is another example, if you want someone with an easier path to the Olympics.

        You cannot use the trajectory of someone else and apply it to another.

        A few Canadians made it big time . Levins probably burned out with too many miles, Mo Ahmed is good, Nate Brannen was good, Kevin Sullivan was ok,. Knight could be the next big thing, why not. Will he go train under Salazar in a couple years?

        Gnarly kick and tons of endurance for hard, fast, long racing.
