Does anyone out there know what the indoor American junior record for 1500 meters might be? Apparently Webb barely missed indoor WJR at mile with his 3:59.86 as Jim Ryun - when he was a freshman at Kansas - ran a 3:59.6 in Feb. 1966. 1500 WJR is 3:39.83 (Gert-Jan Liefers, NET, March '97). If there was a split for Ryun, Webb might still have beat it with his 3:43.27. Speaking of juniors, Webb had the extremely good fortune to have been born on January 13, meaning he'll have all of this year and next to compete as a junior. Ironically, however, his high school distance star counterpart, Dathan Ritzenhein, was born just 14 days earlier, yet will lose out on a whole year of junior eligibility because he'll be 20 years old for all of two days in 2002. Webb, incidentally, is the 237th American to join the sub-four minute mile club.
