I'm liking his chances more than I did a month or two ago, largely because he's done pretty much what I said he needed to in ... |

I don't think Browne was necessarily moved up. He's been largely a 10k/5k guy since college, mixing in the occasional 1500 and only recently extending beyond the typical road race distances.

Dear Clyde,
Judging by the Grecian ability to meet deadlines, my guess is somewhere between a minute prior to the first event and several hours after the Olympics are over. |

Or possibly the 3000 m steelechase  If he does stick with Salazar for several more years, I'd bet anything he becomes a 5k/10k/XC guy.
Reason I say that is after seeing how he moved Dan Browne ... |

Seeing as how the 800m was (is?) your main event and you coach collegiate track, I wouldn't exactly put you in the "unqualified to give advice" category...  |

My two cents:
A knowledgeable coach will help immensely. You have an aggressive goal. If your HS team coach is not experienced with coaching middle distance, you should find someone else locally . ... |

I wonder how much of a correlation there is between running and reading adventure/fantasy/science fiction. My top five:
1. Hobbit/LOTR - Tolkien
2. Chronicles of Amber - Roger Zelazny
3. New and ... |

My prediction is that Webb will get top nine, but will not medal, which would be the best an American has done in a long, long time.
It looks extraordinarily difficult for him to medal since there ... |

It will be interesting to see what he settles on as his main event post-HS, since he also runs an extremely fast mile, and I believe has the 3000 m HS record as well.
And isn't Rupp coached by Albe ... |
