I am going to NC to watch the National Nike Meet to watch Colby break the Texas 3200 meter record. After 21 years it is time to go.

Well the only reason I went out in 4:30 for the first 1600 was because Coach Greaen told me that if I went out any faster then that he would give me two swats with the paddle when I returned home....true story.

Youre An Idiot May 18, 2008 at 6:24am.
Besides German ran the 4:05 before the 9:00 so the 75 min gap means nothing...
#37
Re:lol May 18, 2008 at 2:12am.
I don't see Colby on here self-promoting, so your comment is inappropriate
#36
Lol May 17, 2008 at 5:51pm.
Yea Colby what do you have to say about German running a 4:05 only 75 min apart from a 9:00 in 100 degree weather?

YA THATS WHAT I THOUGHT!

Fastest Double... May 13, 2008 at 8:21pm.
4:06 is faster for sure. My guess is Henry could have gone faster but he wasnt tested. most impressive was the 4:30-I'm-just-cruising-first-mile and then the hammer went down with a 4:22 for good measure to run the still standing 8:52 record. Second and third place was 9:01.xx

You have to earn those shorts. Exclusive to SLC distance track.

last time i checked colby ran 4:06 and 8:53 which is clearly a faster double
than 8:52 4:09
#32
Chris_x May 13, 2008 at 10:29am.
i'm sure you can beat us all i a race, 14 year old boy
#31
Fastest Double, Sorta May 13, 2008 at 8:46am.
that would more than likely be Eric Henry, 1987. he ran 8:52, which is still the record. he also did it with neg splits (4:30-4:22). then he came back and ran 4:09. second was 3 seconds back.

Why isn't Colby on the front page of Dyestat. That has got to be the fastest Double in Texas State History

actually Michael's a pretty hardcore racer. At the Pearland meet he knocked over a guy from Creek in the 2mile 150m in because he got boxed in. But he did the same thing here that he did in the mile there, where he kicked up at the 1000m.

Priceless, that kid needs to realize his surroundings

i've never seen this many long shorts in a distance race before.

Whoever said Cook pushed Colby is an idiot. I'm a close friend of michael and he is not the kind of guy to push someone else. If you look at it michael was in front of colby when colby TRIPPED. It is just out of the question that michael would stick his arm behind him or turn around and push him during the last 200 of the mile...idiot.

Great race by Colby Lowe and Mike Cook, who I called Barnes for some reason the whole race. Lowe had to be surprised when heard and then saw Cook on the last lap. It is a great race and some fast times. I also want to apologize again for calling Cook Barnes.
