2016 Foot Locker Nationals Speed Rating Preview


Originally published by Bill Meylan for TullyRunners.com

I compiled the following lists to familiarize myself with runners competing in Foot Locker 2016. I wanted a general idea of what the runners have accomplished in terms of speed ratings with a look towards handicapping the race. Knowing something about the runners and contenders make the races more interesting when watching the races.

The tables below include:
 ... Overall Rating - an approximated overall speed rating for betting purposes
 ... FL Region Rating - speed rating from the Foot Locker regional
 ... State Meet Rating - speed rating from the State Meet
 ... Other Ratings - other selected speed ratings from the season (Note - 1 speed rating point = 3 seconds)

Some brief comments about selected runners are given following the tables.
