i accidentally trashed the original before responding, but somebody was
asking if x was the right conversion between 1600 and a mile, and cited the
old 800/880 conversion.
The problem is that there's not really a fixed conversion for any distance;
the slower your final time the greater the

The WC A standard at 1500m is rather stiff this year: 3:36.20.
From 1983 there has been exactly one US championship where the winning time
was 3:36.20 or faster, last year when Jennings ran 3:35.90 (and he was the
only one).
The last three US champs in Eugene ('86, 93, '99) winning times were
