Are the trials in Albuquerque? Seems odd to have the Olympic trials at altitude when the actual event is much lower.

Makes a lot more sense, but the temps and humidity are probably a lot different than Paris. At least my memories of Florida and France from my Army days are a lot different. I used to follow our distance runners pretty closely, but really have no idea who we have, or their talent level.

Grant Fisher missed the American record in the indoor 5000 last week by 2 or 3 tenths of a second. He broke the American record for the 2 mile a few days earlier. Recent video discussing his training:

I guess Whitaker hasn't given up on the 1500 experiment. The 4:30 converts to a 4:10 1500 for most runners. She'll need to run about 4 or 5 seconds faster to win NCAA's.
Will Floyd broke the Stanford freshmen indoor record in the 400 meters, running 46.46. That is fast for a freshman.

All good stuff, but...WOW, that's one helluva run by Floyd.

Bob,
Who is the Roisin you refer to in the splits in an earlier post. I do not find her on the roster. Her time is awfully fast so maybe they are just trying to get Whitaker to the point where she is a threat to win the 1500 to get more points than we might otherwise earn.
