I'm sorry, but last time I checked, Patterson beat Johnson head to head at Region. Last time I checked, Patterson outkicked Johnson at the end of Region. Sure, Johnson beat Patterson at Metro, but Metro isnt an imprtant race. So, I don't know where u got the idea that Johnson had more determination than Patterson or any other runner. He was not 30 seconds behind Johnson. At TN Classic, Matt Coniglio also outkicked Johnson. Johnson is a great runner, don't get me wrong. But you can't convince any of us that he has more determination than any of the other contenders.
We are not saying that these seniors are suddenly gonna run 30 seconds faster. We are saying that at the end, they will have more determination because its a more emotional race for them. Don't criticize us for being stupid when you can't even read a post correctly.
