If Kip Keino is an example of a 1500m runner moving up to the steeple, it doesn't do much to advance the argument for 3:38 types having any more success in the steeple than they would in the 1500. A 3:38 1500 is equivalent to about 8:13-8:16 in the steeple. Any steepler who can run in the 8:05

More to the point, there is an effect on distance races at 2100' altitude (Edmonton). The air pressure is only about 91% of the pressure at sea level (on average) which means the partial pressure of Oxygen is only 91% what it is at sea level. Air pressure/partial pressure of oxygen definitely

Everyone has their opinion on the effect of the temperature but the altitude (2000') is worth about 1-1/2 minutes (or 3-4 sec per mile). The heat couldn't have been worth more than about 5 minutes overall unless you think Abera was capable of running under the WR on a good day. This still puts
