Sounds like a cool race. Is this the one that goes up for 800 and down for 800?
-
Sorry Rojo but Willis is old and done.
-
What's with Dathan Ritzenhein being oddly listed twice? Is Ritz an agent?
-
The official LRC after party will be starting at TownHall and moving to Platform Brewery.

Note to self: name my son Nick.
-
Didn't somebody already start an OFFICIAL thread about this race?
-
Any one know if he has the standard for Doha yet ?
-
He does not. The standard is 3:36 flat. He ran 3:35.25 in Berlin on Sept 2, 2018. Unfortunately, the qualifying window opened fives days later, on September 7!
-
Willis won it in 3:56, course record. 61, 2:02, 3:02 splits for leader.
-
There were 9 or 10 guys spread across the road with 100 meters left. But the ageless wonder walked ‘em all down. Nick Willis...an all-time great!
-
What a race between Osika, Lipari, and See. 4:27, 4:28, 4:29 or something like that. They were flying!!
-
Why are they filming this elite race on somebody's cell phone? Held vertically, at that?

That suuuucks. Hopefully he can get it in the next few weeks, I bet he has a 3:35 in him still. I think the window closes on September 7th. -

Not that it matters, but it closes on the 6th. -
Out of curiosity, how many sub 4s does that give Willis now ? Assuming that roads count. Wasn’t he in line for some kind of record for some consecutive years running sub 4 ?

According to Kyle Merber, Willis had 42 in 2017. He's run 5 this year, and ran 3 last year, so he has at least 50 now.
You can read more than you want to about the consecutive sub-4 record here:

Cheers for the link to a great thread. As much as I like Willis, I don’t want to see him take down Walker’s streak. That man has done so much for his sport and his community.
