very unambitious pacing from gun, only 4-flat aim
drifting out to 2'09+ i expected to consign clocking to maybe 3'58 perhaps just a dip into 3'57s
to run 3'55.2 off that is incredible !!!
especially considering weather far too hot for a 1500 ( musta been close to 100F at trackside considering ambient 33C )
off more ambitious 63s pacing ( 2'06/3'09 ) at worst, in only 70 - 75F, she couda run
3'53+ !!!
I'm not trying to troll you, but in your opinion which all-time actual performance is the closest to what that athlete "could have" ran? Say, from 800m up. Most people aren't interested in "could have runs" and much prefer "did run", but I'm curious if you have thought about who has best-executed a race to their potential.
