German carrries US hopes in Amman
25th in Edinburgh last year. This year?
This guy is special. He has carried all before him on the indoor track this winter, running an unbelievable 3:55:02 for the mile, gun to tape on his own, smashing his world junior record – yet again.
He is prime-time in the US. His every move is watched by those hoping for the days of strong US milers to emerge once more, hoping he could be the next Steve Scott or Jim Ryan. However, its on the country that we at MST take most notice and his strength and endurance, coupled with this amazing speed, could well be enough to take him very close next week to being the first non-African World junior XC medalist for two decades.
