BU meet wrote:
Nope, right here. Haven't seen this happen before and figured with it being a conference meet that they couldn't throw a random event on the end of it. Thought that they were going to do it at Last Chance and that there was a miscommunication on the date. Lots of big names coming to BU in the next two weeks
Alberto always does what he wants. If he wants a college conference meet to add an exhibition mile race, it will happen

Yeah, you're just stupid, plain ole' stupid. What a sad existence you have. Ever hear of getting out of the basement, 'cause the forum route isn't helping you look so good. Idiot.
I say no chance...he can't stay in peak form for that long.
Bring in the Norwegian kid but he probably is running worlds

Yeah, it may be just like that. Set up record attempt. I have mixed feeling between seeing that and watching a real race. I thought the Ches thing was fun to see. What do all of you think?
Yeah, complete BS! Reminds me of that Bannister guy.
Look for Yomif to be joined by a handful of NOP and Hoka milers. Should be a fun race to watch!

Gjert says "his kids are too big for indoor world records". Big sizewise that is, the sharp curves makes it hard for Jakob to run really fast indoors.
Didn't Rupp run like a 350 on this track? Kejelcha should get it.

Good one idiot alert
Kids these days don't understand how unimportant indoor track WRs are compared to trans con records.
How do you get tickets to this thing?

Going across a country is more fun and rewarding and you get to experience so much(culture, scenery, people, climates). Running indoors sounds boring. People running around a small oval with constant tight turns. A serious runner does races which are more than just a couple of laps.
he is in shape, obviously. with proper pacing he will make it. some days left for recovery purposes.
Banana bread - do you think Bekele would be good at trans cons? He might be almost as good as Al Howe.
A world record, indoors or out, is a world record which can bring in a big pay day from their sponsor. You should want to take advantage of the opportunity to make some good cash. You’re never young forever!
With arguably the fast track in the world for the mile and the circus atmosphere that Boston Univ brings to their meets, “their Annoucer is dope, the record has a good shot at going down, provided the pacer does his job. Can’t wait!

Damn right
Beware of the one who comes to judge the hempheads...
I.P.O.B.B.F.L.R.C.
This one will happen if he has halfway decent pacers. He'll be fresh by that time and that is a very fast track. There'll be no one in the field like Tefera or Solinsky to kick past him.
I predict a 3:46.12 at BU next week. Yomif would have got the record in Melrose had the rabbit not gone so quick and the BU is 2sec faster than the Armory. You heard it here baby.
