05-31-2004 Hengelo Thales FBK Games 1500 3:33.70 4
06-05-2004 Seville Meeting De Sevilla 2004 800 1:46.54 1
06-08-2004 Ostrava Golden Spike 1500 3:32.74 1
06-19-2004 Eugene Prefontaine Classic Mile 3:50.85 1
07-15-2004 Sacramento USATF Olympic Trials - Heat 2 1500 3:47.10 1
07-16-2004 Sacramento USATF Olympic Trials - Semifinal 2 1500 3:39.92 2
07-18-2004 Sacramento USATF Olympic Trials - Final 1500 3:36.13 1
07-30-2004 London Norwich Union London Grand Prix Mile 3:50.73 4
08-02-2004 Malmo MAI-Galan 800 1:46.09 3
08-20-2004 Athens Olympic Games - Heat 2 1500 3:41.25 9
So far this year he's run the Penn Relays 5k(13:30 win) and 800 in sprint medley relay there(1:47 split for 3rd place). I looked at the heat sheets for this weekends James Madison Invite and he's not entered. I read an early preview for the Home Depot(now Adidas) invite on May 22nd and he wasn't mentioned but Bernard Lagat was.
I'm checking out this schedule...

I'm guessing he'd run something similar to this...
5-29 Hengelo 1500
6-1 Milan 800
6-4 Prefontaine Classic Mile
6-23 Usatf 1500 heat
6-25 Usatf 1500 final
7-22 London Mile
7-24 Brasschaat 800
8-6 World Champs 1500 heat
8-8 World Champs 1500 semi
8-10 World Champs 1500 final
8-19 Zurich 1500
8-21 Sheffield 800
8-26 Brussels 1500
I am guessing about this based on what he's run last year and his goals and what the order of meets are. I believe he could run a 1500 a week before Hengelo. Possible choices are Adidas Invite in Los Angeles or meets in Nijmegen or Tønsberg(I don't think he'd run in Belem). Maybe instead of the 7-24 meet he'd run the 7-25 Helsinki 800. It's also possible to run 8-23 Linz meet or 8-28 Rieti meet. It's possible he could extend his season and run in Moscow, Berlin, or World Athletics Final but probably not. I'm curious as to his meets. I wonder when he will announce his next meet. What do you guys think? :rolleyes::eek:!!!
