Two of those 5 are advancing. So I'm a bit confused at what you're getting at. Are you commenting on the depth of the 3200 for the season or that you are not happy with the times on Championship night?<br /><br />The first mile was slightly over 4:40 which was clearly strategic, then the surges came. Look at the regional results for NCAA this weekend, Chris Derek ran 30+ on Thursday in the 10k to move on to Nationals.
