Bethke has had an interesting last month. A sub-four mile at Notre Dame. Then the sub-7:52 3K at Washington. Then running down Acosta from way back in the 1600 leg of the DMR at the USATF's to get Wisconsin the NCAA Auto time. Then winning two tactical races at the BIG TEN's. One of them a 5K, which he had never raced before. All in all, a decent month.
It will be interesting to see what he runs at the NCAA's. Likely the 1600 leg in the DMR and then the 3K.
