I want to see a Pilot in the record books... From his past time, he could have finished in 4th place at the March meet if he came with his A game. Of course running indoors vs. outdoors can sometimes make a difference too.]]> General Discussion Sun, 14 Jun 2009 17:58:47 GMT http://www.pilotnation.net/general-discussion-f3/how-soon-can-kipchumba-compete-with-or-beat-galen-rupp-t2221.htm#20539 http://www.pilotnation.net/general-discussion-f3/how-soon-can-kipchumba-compete-with-or-beat-galen-rupp-t2221.htm http://www.pilotnation.net/other-pilot-athletics-f9/dunbar-shows-range-406-mile-t2223.htm coldsmokeAT According to letsrun.com homepage.
