He was not very notable in the past, but last Saturday he broke the American Junior Record in the 5000m, beating out [[German Fernandez]]. This is definitely a notable feat, because he broke [[Galen Rupp|Galen Rupp's]] Junior record. Both German and Galen are among the best and most promising distance runners in America. Chris Derrick is now among them. --[[User:Rake|Rake]] ([[User talk:Rake|talk]]) 22:44, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Chris Derrick has the fastest high school only 5k of all time (besting numerous Olympians and American/world record-holders in the process) and has now also beat Olympian Galen Rupp's national junior record in the 5K (and at the same time beating "notable" runner German Fernandez. Derrick is clearly an elite junior runner on the world stage, arguably as much as Fernandez. I think it is ludicrous to suggest he's non-notable.

Why delete a page about an athlete who, in the near future, will probably be EXTREMELY notable!? There is legitimate evidence to prove that he'll be one of the best. As Rake wrote below, he beat WORLD JUNIOR mile record holder, German Fernandez, in the 5k. In the meet they were also a mere 10 seconds back from some big professional athletes as well. Athletes who have competed at the highest level of the sport. Chris Derrick will certainly be a significant name in the very near future. Nctrack09 (talk) 23:13, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
