Speaking of pole vaulters, I think I recall  Bob Seagren filling in a relay
leg for his track club in the 4x880 during an indoor meet and running 1:59.

from time to time we've raised the names of guys with super range (like
sub-4:00/sub-2:10 people). Here's a new one I don't recall anyone
mentioning.

Driss Al Himer of France (né Morocco) won the Amsterdam Marathon in October
in 2:07:02. That was his debut, mind you.

Note that he's also a 13:10 guy and was in the Edmonton 5K final and has a
1500 best in the 3:37s (so he's in essence a 3:54 miler).

I'd say that puts him way up high on the old great-range list.

How 'bout Sean Messiter:
3:41 1500 and made the final of the '92 OT
6'4 HJ

Those were in the same time frame too - the HJ at one of Club NW/Bill Roe's
classic All-Comer's meets in Seattle ca. 1994

Cheers,
Buck

I'm sure someone can beat this, but I've thrown the open jav 165' with a
2:37 marathon (and 12'6 pole vault).  The javelin is kind of cheating since
smaller guys like me have a better chance of doing OK.

Didn't Cummings do a pretty decent decathlon a while back?

If it was 2:27 at New York, it was much more than a training run. Call
it a death march.

How fast can he sprint 100m??

I would back Gebreselassie as having awesome range
probably 11.7/23.2/48high/1:44/3:30/12:39?/26-/60/2:08

or
El G probably mid11, mid22,47high,1:43/3;26/12:40/26- and if he was willing
to finish off his career , near 2:10 in Marathon.
