The only time I saw Henry Rono run in person was at the NCAA XC championships in Wisconsin in 1978??? - the windy and really cold meet. I think Rono's comment was that Americans were crazy for running in weather like that. He finished almost last. I've got a few photos of Rono, Salazar, Rudy,

If that mile time is a true indication of his fitness, maybe even slower, but I don't think it is(probably unrested, altitude etc.). B. Kunnath wrote: WOW, high 17s?? Im thinking high 18s would be good right now. Malmo said his 1mile tt was 5:30. granted it was at elevation, but lets see!

It was some time well after that that I found Henry Rono at the mile mark of the Riverside 5 miler in MA at 4:50. He had a big spare tire of fat blubbering up and down with each step. He stayed just ahead of me all the way for the 25 minutes. I wonder what his absolute VO2 max was! Tom On

What a shame for someone to only have this memory or knowledge of Henry Rono. Does anyone have the NCAA results from Eugene circa 1977 or '78. The results alone won't tell the story, but Rono was magnificent. In the 5000 (I don't recall whether heats or final, because he was running
