This is REALLY random. But I was looking at Jr. Olympic/age group records, and this guy I used to run against, Chris Dominic, still holds the record for the 3k Midget Boys.
If he's the guy I'm thinking about, he was this ridiculous athlete. He was already 6'2" or something, and had more of basketball player build than a distance runner. I think he was from the running hotbed San Lorenzo, CA area. What was insane about him was his range. There was this event that only contested the 100m dash and the mile, and he won the mile and made the finals of the 100m dash -- and it was a competitive field.
I can't find anything about him running after that level! Anybody know what happened? Burn out? Injury? Another sport?
