It is true that the first sub 4-minute mile was at Oxford and it is true
that Roger Bannister attended Oxford University. However, he had already
left Oxford University when he ran the 3:59.4. He, along with Chris

Probably. And even most American high school kids who have run 3:53 have
also run 47 on a relay.

There is a huge difference between 3:53 guys and 3:45 1500m guys!

Phil is correct. The 4:53 that I gave as his freshman mile was run in
October '46, at the start of his freshman year. That may have been his first
mile race. The 4:24.6 was run in June 1947.

That's a big statement. Of course Tiger's dad probably thinks Tiger could

Sorry, I was thinking JT was referring to 3:53 as 1500 metre time! The mile

Hall's 3:42.70 at Stanford last night made him No. 3 prep ever in the 1500, and if you
combine the 1500 and mile to get a more complete picture, he's No. 6 (behind Webb,
Ryun, Danielson, Liquori and Sage).
Splits: 59.2, 60.2 (1:59.4), 60.3 (2:59.7), 43.0.
Last 400 was 57.6.

I might point out that under IAAF and USATF rules, if an automatic timing

Webb is a 47.0 guy right now. That is a long way from
45. And yes, most of the top milers in the world can
split 45, but spliting 45 and running 45 open are
miles apart as well. I get tired of people throwing
