Yeah I misread it. Sorry about that. I still don't think it was wrong for him to be in the meet. He ran 1:51 and 8:46 this year, and the 8:46 was with splits of 4:30 4:16. Put together, his mile time should have been right around 4:00. He'll be running it a few more times this year, and I don't doubt that he'll prove that he can run fast.
And in any case, he's going to Oregon next year, so that might have helped him get in the meet.
Thank you for pointing that out - I had the same thought.

I doubt he's in the midst of heavy training considering the CA state meet is in 5-6 days, and that's not to take away from him either, as he's a big talent and a good kid.
He ran 3:44-1500 about a year ago. As far as I can tell, his season best for 2014 at the 1600 was 4:13.33 going into Pre. For 3200 it was 8:46, with a huge negative split at Arcadia, so the strength is there. He'd only broken 4:20 twice this season, with two 4:13s. He's only run just fast enough to win all season, which shows a lot of restraint on his part.
It's very difficult to run 15 seconds faster for a 1600/mile type distance than you have for a season that started a few months ago. Blake can still potentially break 4 this season, but his legs weren't race-sharp for a 3:55 mile pace.
Yes he's either lying or his coach is a moron if he said that. This is his pinnacle race, if he was capable of sub 4 a few days after he wouldn't be too worried about states.
