From The Advocate:
"In the lead-up to the Burnie Mile, Stewart McSweyn said his training partner Matthew Ramsden would be a “superstar” of the Australian middle-distance running scene in a year or two."
The 20-year-old West Australian lived up to that hype when he beat home a field including McSweyn and Olympic duo Luke "Mathews and Sam McEntee to take out the Tasmanian Mile at the Burnie Carnival."
"Ramsden (30m) beat home Dylan Evans and scratchmen Mathews and McSweyn to collect the title in a time of 4:00.15."

Ramsden, 20, who was 6th at World Jrs in 2016, has a 3:39 pb from Oxy last but seems poised for a bigger 2018 as he just ran 3:40.08 at Zatopek.

It's a good run, but it should be noted this was a handicap race. Matthews and McSweyn started 30m behind him.

Does that time even get you into the NCAA mile these days? Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Elliot was the WR holder at the same age with a far faster time. . On cinders.

For him, he has secured his hot blonde and perhaps that is all that matters -

The guy did make the Olympic final — which counts for something. Competitive accomplishments matter as much as time. -
NY = New York, not New Year's, rojo.
