I wouldn't see much of a difference between a 4.47 40-time and 4.52 40-time, and that was the difference in this mile race. Unreal.

Nice

That's awesome

Wow, Roger Bannister did that over half a century ago and this is the first time in La ? That's a shocker.

Mostly because LSU isn't a great distance track program. They focus largely on the sprints. Georgetown had 4 different runners go sub-4 this year. Also, the mile isn't run that often compared to the 1,500.

Breaking four is still really tough. Only six high schoolers have done it ever. Plus, Louisiana is one of the weakest distance running states in the country.

The world record has dropped 16 seconds since Bannister's sub 4 mile. It is impressive to break 4.

I was honestly waiting on slme idiot to come in and say sub 4 isnt that impressive.
