I had a friend who ran for a college and he broke 30 seconds once in his life for 200m. Chris could reel of back to back 31's to post his on 62 sec 400m. Even in spikes he sprinted off his heels; however, his lack of speed didn't stop him from breaking the 4:20 barrier and sub 15 for 5000m. I felt so sorry for my friend if someone was anywhere close to him with 200-300m to go he knew he was outkicked.
