My problem is: I am not metrically challenged, but 'imperially'... With my college mathematics background I was convinced I should be able to reverse the formula used, but it proved a bit too much work in the first try (especially the 'rounding' rules). Can anybody (or has anyboady already)

Suzy's second sub-4:00 of the year makes her only the second American ever to do that. Of course, Little Mary did it twice, '83 and '85. In '83 she was lights-out: broke 4:00 two meets in a row, ran only 4:00.90 to win the WC in her next, and followed with 3:59.80 in her next. gh
