RE: FW: t-and-f: Temperature and performance

[Highfill, Floyd] Of course I don't know if you were fed a line, I'm only saying that looking at results from distances races (say 10K through Marathon) [Highfill, Floyd] there did not seem to be any really fast times turned in when temperatures were in the 40's or 50's. Notable times
