I took Manzano's splits and talked to him after the race.
This is his first race of the year and ran the 1200 over the 1600 as part of the training plan. He seemd pleased with closing in 53. and being in the mix. Cook has him geared toward progressing through the summer season.
He ran a lot of races in college but not much over seas. I'd like to see how fast he goes this year with the altitude base and adjusted racing schedule.
