---I remember Jim Ryan running in the 100 yard dash at the SW Relays---did he also run the mile??

[CajunEXPRESS]

Geez Boomer it is quicker to google than to ask the question. He was the first high schooler to do a sub four mile.

100 yard dash? Sure about that?

And it's Jim Ryun.

Jim Ryan probably never ran a 100 yard dash in his life. Surely didn't at those Southwestern Relays. I was there. Guy was a miler.

Trust me. I know. I was a distance running history buff back in the day. Went to a running camp one summer at KU. Got to run on a lot of the same trails Ryun trained on. Saw his house and everything. Really cool stuff.

---So if I put up $100 and the rest put up $100 apiece---Well all who want to get into this----If he ran the 100--I get all the $100s from all that entered---say there are 10 entered they get $10 apiece!!!
