AM: 8.6 Went to watch the downhill mile race and the turns were just as bad as I expected. It would have taken off 6 seconds easily if they had had a linear course. But the times were still decently fast considering the extremely localness of this race. My club went 1-2 with jordan in first with 4:31 and henry well behind him in 4:46. That is both of their best mile times, but for jordan it is pathetic because he ran 1:56 800 in highschool. If he just put down a consistend 50-60 mile base he would run 4:20s unaided right off base and low 4:20's with speed work on top of the base. I wish I had his talent.
