What is the world standard for the mens' 1500m.?
Has Krum hit the standard?
Has anyone else hit the standard?
How will this affect the USATF indoor? With no rabbit, unless Lassiter runs, will anyone take the race out hard enough for the leaders to hit the world mark?

I think that the standard is 3:41. If this is the case then Krum and Lunn are the only US runners to hit the mark. I understand that the worlds do accept mile conversions.
I don't think that Lassiter has qualified for USATF as of this point. He may be invited if he doesn't hit the mark. If the race is a sit-N-kick, Lunn will go to worlds even if he comes in last.

What about Krum? Is he running the 800m?
According to the Michigan guys Webb hates to be in a crowd. The plan is to box him in and slow the pace down so that he can't hit the standard for worlds.
btw I think that the world standard is soft, around 3;43.
Actually I think the world standard is very fast. 3:38 something. I am not sure anyone has made it yet, or will make it.
Indoors: 3:43.94
Outdoors: 3:34.90
God, why so soft? its harder to hit the NCAA auto time.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
