Myabe we should count XC when assessing 5k/10k

I agree. IMHO 10K should include all distances between 8K and 20K on all surfaces.

But what memories! I still remember Madison Square Garden, packed to the rafters, McGrady & Evans in the 600. All you ever have to say is 1:07.6, and anyone from that era will get that far-off glazed look of wonder . . .

Yup! I'm sitting here with a shit-eating grin just thinking about that fantastic race. Thank you for mentioning it and bringing up.

and, if memory serves, it was on live TV, no? (like maybe Wide World Of Sports?)
