Nov 8, 2008 - That's a very good time for an 8th grader, but it's not like it's going to get you to the Olympics

Nov 14, 2008 - that is a very good time...but to get to the olympics u need to be much better in 8th grade i ran a 4:48 in 8th grade and im currently in 9th grade...i dont think my 8th grade time is good enough either an 8th grader for the olympics probably should be somewhere at about 4:20 im guessing? im not sure

Nov 23, 2008 - Hicham is the best, but I'd have still loved to see Coe and Morceli in their prime in this race. It's hard to believe someone will soon beat his mile or 1500m times but it will happen. His 3:26 1500m is mind bogglingly good. A plug for my father who taught me to love running and the mile in particular... earlier this year he ran a 6:56 indoor mile at the US Senior Championships at age 81. Try to beat that Hicham! :)
