p9morbid Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 (edited) there were numerical values to correspond with "bragging." Every high school runner lies about their times, but I read these forums and can't find anything about how fast anyone is.

800trackmom Posted October 5, 2004 Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 Times can vary a lot depending on the course, the condition of the course. the weather, etc, etc. There are a few who are so good that they win dispite the adverse conditons. Jill Skinner comes to mind, the guys from Houston come to mind, and of course Bumbi comes to mind. It's hard to just compare times if those times didn't come on the same course under the same conditions. Last year at state was a great example of how much the weather determines times. Had it not been so hot, most everyone's time would have been better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p9morbid Posted October 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 thanks for the information. I've been racing for about 15 years so I am privy to all the different reasons why results vary. thumb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
