This is like going down to the kennels to hear all the dogs barking.

An activity that likely consumes your hours when released.

I like this. When it gets personal it says you guys have run out of arguments.

So you might break 6 minutes?

By over a minute.

I'm awed. Truly. Keep up with your prescriptions.

Maximus died in the Colosseum. You must have missed the movie. But then there are a lot of things you don't get.

But it's ok for you? And just what exactly has been your contribution to the discussion, Pops?

I am someone who is aging well and clean. I'm standing up for similar people.

You are just trolling and resenting people like me.

You have long since exhausted your premise and degenerated into just firing playground insults. Try to grow up a little if you can.

And getting the last word in while you can. Your performances prove nothing about anyone else's. Same as mine - although the idiots here think that is the only basis for what I have argued. Much like you do, basing your views on personal experience. Your experience is irrelevant to a discussion of what Barton or anyone else has run.

It's very relevant.. Remember you have everyone cratering at 27 like you did.

Some awesome folks are made of sterner stuff. Likely due to testicle size. Or presence.

I am a clean athlete. I can beat tennis players less than half my age. But just as your athletic experiences are irrelevant, so mine are not the basis by which I form a view of anyone else's. To be otherwise is to be informed by personal partiality - as most here are.

There was also a 4:06.95 by 50 y.o. June 8th.

Source? 1500 maybe but not a mile.

Nobody cares how you form your view.

Nah.

Brad Barton is 53yo if it hasn’t been mentioned in this thread; it matters, 53 is not 50.
