Now worries! I am crazy excited for this race! I wish it was on ESPN+ I'm curious about the lineup, but with this event it's all about racing! The 1200 really separates itself into 2 groups, the top group who go under 2:55 and closer to 2:50 and the group who runs closer to 3:00. We need a strong 1200, it's usually been Cooper's leg, but we need him for the mile to give us a chance. Not sure who we run here, I'd love Whitmarsh, but I could see Luca Santorum or even Gilbert Rono on this leg. We need someone fearless, which I can see both doing as both have some 800 speed and 4:02 miles! So who's the better racer and tactician. I really hope we send a 45 second leg in the 400! We're dumb if we have someone out there running a 47/48! A 45 second leg combined with a strong 800 leg could put Cawthra in a good position at anchor. We have many guys who can run a 45, and Auhmad or Nortje who can go under 45 on a split! I wish Whitmarsh was his last year self, but we will need at least a 1:47 but not lower than a 1:48.2 in the 800! Whether it's Farquharson or Norris, we need their best 800 of their life! Let's make up ground and go crazy in the 400/800, show everyone those legs matter! Then it's the Cooper show! There will be some guys anchoring who can probably go 3:50, so Cawthra has to play it smart and manage his pace! He can hang up there, but needs to make sure we do and run his heart out.
