This happened to me last week. A guy at Copelands Sports watches me picking out shoes, try them on, doing some high knees in them, and asks what event I run.
I used to run the 800 mostly, I say. Some 400's, some 1500's. Now I'm trying to get back in shape for cross country in the fall.
Oh yeah? he asks. What was your time for the 800?
My best time was 1:55, I say. But that was a long time ago.
Oh, I ran a 1:54, he says. But I wasn't as good in the 400 - what was your time there?
Around 51 flat, I say.
Oh, see, I only ran a 58, he replies. I was a lot better at the 8.
What a dumbass.
Maybe he meant open 400? lollll
