LetsRun.com's Lausanne Recap: World Leaders All Over The Place

Huling Now #5 All-time In US In Steeple, Uceny #10 In Women's 1,500

By LetsRun.com
July 8, 2010

The big news in Lausanne was the return to action for Usain Bolt in 2010 from an Achilles injury, and he ran a world-leading 9.82. Up next is a confrontation with Asafa Powell in Paris (Powell has run 9.82 unaided as well this year but also 9.71, 9.75, 9.81 wind-aided and 9.83 into the wind). On the men's side, the world leaders in addition to Bolt were former Olympic champ Jeremy Wariner in the 400 (44.57), world youth record holder Nicholas Kemboi, who ran 3:33 four years ago as a 16-year-old, finally going sub-3:33 (3:31.52), Olympic champ Brimin Kipruto in the steeple (8:01.62), and Ivan Ukhov in the men's high jump (2.33). On the women's side, world 5k champ Vivian Cheruiyot (8:34.58 3,000m), Ethiopian Gelete Burka (3:59.28 1,500m), and world champ Yargelia Savigne (14.99 triple jump) all had world leaders.

However, we know the LRC faithful are most interested in the mid-d and distance action and we break down every race for you, including inspired runs by Morgan Uceny and Dan Huling, who now are both in the US top 10 all-time as Uceny is #10 and Huling now #5. We also break down all of the running events except for the women's 400. Enjoy.

Men's 800: Rudisha Control Things From The Front
World leader David Rudisha was in the race and he's clearly the best in the world at time trial affairs and simply running fast. However, he didn't seem interested in going after a fast time today. And for a while it looked like he might be beaten as a result, because two of the best championship/tactical 800 runners on the planet were also in the field in 2009 world champion Mbulaeni Mulaudzi of South Africa and 2009 silver medallist Alfred Yego. After the rabbit was gone and the field approached 600, Rudisha had the lead but Mulaudzi was right behind him and heading into the final turn, it seemed as if Mulaudzi was poised to pass Rudisha. However, the 800 is different than most races, as the leader often hangs on. In this case, as they entered the homestretch, it was clear that Rudisha had been holding back a bit and had something in reserve as he pulled away down the homestretch and won handily in 1:43.25 to Mulaudzi's seasonal best of 1:43.58. Yego also broke 1:44 to finish 3rd in 1:43.97. It was a good day for nearly everyone in the race, as the fifth, sixth and seventh finishers all set personal bests and the fourth finisher has a seasonal best.

Women's 1,500: Burka Holds Off Olympic Champ And Unkown Moroccan In Great Race as Uceny Cracks US Top 10
Coming into the race, we fully expected 2008 Olympic champ Nancy Langat to put on a show and get under 4:00 for the first time in her career. Langat had already won the previous metric miles in Doha and New York and came into the race after running a career best 1:57.75 for second at Pre last Saturday. In Lausanne, Langat ran as if she fully expected to win, as she was the only runner right on the heels of the rabbit, who took the field through in 64.41 and 2:07.37. In the early going, America's Christin Wurth was right behind Langat in 3rd, but Wurth didn't stay there long as she faded significantly on the second lap and finished only 8th, albeit in a seasonal best 4:03.44, a far cry from the sub-4 form she displayed last year.

Going into the bell, six or seven women were still in contention, but once the racing began over the final 300 (1,200 was reached in 3:12.44), it was clear one of three women was going to win. Coming off the final turn, Langat was being followed closely by 2008 world indoor champ Geleta Burka of Ethiopia as well as unknown Moroccan Ibtissam Lakhouad. Lakhouad had finished last in the Olympic final in 2008 but only came into the race with a 4:03 PR.

Both Lakhouad and Burka passed Langat and it was clear that one of them would win. It looked as if Lakhouad would get the win, and if the concept of a basically unknown soon-to-be 30-year-old Moroccan winning a major race with a big PR makes you queasy because it makes you wonder they are on some sort of PED, well then it was time to get nervous. As a result, we're sure there were sighs of relief exhaled by many fans when Burka refused to give up and passed Lakhouad just before the line to get a hard fought victory in 3:59.28 to Lakhoaud's 3:59.35.

The race indeed was a "great race" as the television commentators on the international feed pointed out. It was great because not only was it fast (the top 8 finishers all set personal or seasonal bests) but it also featured a hard-fought battle between three great competitors. The fast times and close finish was the result of very even pacemaking (see more on that in the men's 1,500).

Coming in fourth was Britain's Lisa Dobriskey, the World Championships silver medallist from last year, who ran a seasonal best of 4:01.83. Cornell grad Morgan Uceny was the top American in 4th with a near 2 second PR of 4:02.40, a time that moves her into the top 10 all-time in the US at #10.

Women's 3,000: Vivian Cheruiyot Comes Out On Top Of Defar And Masai
Coming into this race, it was said that Meseret Defar wanted to attack the African record of 8:23.23. Well, whoever wrote that was lying or maybe the weather conditions made the runners come to their senses as the odds of someone getting a record in 80-plus temps with over 40% humidity were low (Editor's note: American steepler Dan Huling reported the conditions as being ideal, so maybe the weather temps weren't as reported - see more below). The pace was never very fast in this race, as it was just 2:54 at the 1k mark (which is 8:42 pace). The race basically came down to the last 800, which was covered in 2:07 and after a 59 or 60 second last lap, 2009 world 5k champ Vivian Cheruiyot was the victor in a new world-leading time of 8:34.19. 2009 European indoor champ Alemitu Bekele ended up a surprise second in a new Turkish national record as Meseret Defar was 3rd. For the 2004 Olympic 5k champ Defar, it was her first non-1,500 defeat of the year. 2009 World champion at 10k, Linet Masai, found the short distance and less-than-honest pace not to her liking as after running up front early and towing the field through 2k, she only finished 10th in 8:41.37.

American Jen Rhines was an absolute disaster in this race as she was 12th in 9:24, a far cry from her 8:35 3k PR from 2007. We have no idea if she fell but the announcers were already talking about what a disaster of a race it was for her before the 2nd lap was finished. Last week at Pre, Rhines also struggled home in 15:22.

Men's 1,500: The Man Whom Andrew Wheating Beat Wins With World Leader
This race was a bit hard to follow as there were at least 3 pacemakers in the field - one for 800, one for 1k and one for 1,200. The pacemaking was basically 100% spot on, as each of the first three laps was run in 56 seconds (56.08, 56.90, 2:49.78 - it drives us nuts how they normally go out in 54 or 55 and then bang out a 58 or so).

When the real racing started with 300 to go, Daniel Kipchirchir Komen had the lead but he was being stalked by adidas Grand Prix champion Nicholas Kemboi. Kemboi took the lead on the turn and never looked back as he'd get the win in impressive fashion. Andrew Wheating fans take note, Kemboi is the last guy that was passed by Wheating in the Pre Classic mile as Kemboi was 6th to Wheating's 5th.

And race directors take note, due to the even pacing, his final time was 3:31.52 - a new world leader by a ton (old world leader was 3:32.20) and a massive new PR as his previous best was the 3:33.39 he ran in New York. Rallying to finish second was Moroccan Amine Laalou. Laalou had been the runner-up at Pre last week in 3:50.22, but was so far back in the middle of the race today that the announcers totally wrote him off. But the man with 1:43.25 speed rallied well to get near Kemboi (who was 6th at Pre in 3:52).

It's worth pointing out, as we're not sure if anyone has talked about just how good Asbel Kiprop was at the Kenyan Trials. Kemboi, who ran 3:31 today, was beaten by more than 3.5 seconds in that race. Kenyan Trials Top 8 below:

Men's Steeple: Kipruto Runs World Leader As Huling Moves Up To #5 All-Time In US
After running 8:18 in each of this last three steeplechases, Brimin Kipruto returned to the form that saw him win the Olympic title in 2008, as he won in a world-leading 8:01.62 today. Also running quite well in the race was American Dan Huling, who ran a PR of 8:13.29 to nab fifth, in a time that moves him up to #5 all-time in the US (Huling's previous PR was #7 on the US list at 8:14.69).

The race was honest from the gun and the pacemaking was spot on for a sub-8:00 showing, as the rabbit hit the first km in 2:39.44. When the 2km mark was passed in by 5:20.73, it was clear that a fast finishing time was bound to happen as the pace was still fast and two guys were still in contention for the win and would have to race. Leading at this point was 21-year-old Uganda national record holder Benjamin Kiplagat, but he was being challenged by Kipruto. The pace lagged a bit as the two got ready to kick. At the bell, Kipruto had the lead and he never relinquished it as he closed in roughly 62 to get the win. Kiplagat held up very well over the final km and lap as he finished in 8:03.81 - a massive new PR as his previous national record was just 8:12.98.

2004 Olympic bronze medallist Paul Kipsiele Koech, who dominated the steeple in New York in May, managed to hold onto third in 8:11.65 as American Dan Huling did a good job of running his own race and not slowing down too much once he found himself in no man's land after the 1st kilometer.

LetsRun.com caught up with Huling in his hotel room at 1 a.m after the race. Huling was clearly pleased to have PRed in his first European effort of the season, although by no means was he jumping off the walls, as he first described the race as being "okay" before summarizing his effort as follows: "I thought sub-815 would be a great first race over (in Europe), so I was pretty pleased."

The reason why Huling at first described the race as being just "okay" is because he felt like he left a faster time out on the track. "I was kind of disappointed with how the last two laps went. With a lap to go, I kind of thought I could run 809 or 810 or 811," said Huling, who admitted he wasn't entirely sure of his intermediate splits as he had no one in the stands taking them for him (volunteers anyone?) as his coach Robert Gary is in the US (Huling did joke that there was a chip embedded his bib so someone must know his splits).

Huling may have not closed as fast as he would have liked because the start of the race was incredibly fast.

"I felt pretty good and I went out a lot harder than I ever have. I think it was 420-22 at the mile. I know I was 241 at the k (and 526 at 2k as best I can tell. And I'd never gone out faster than 2:45 before. I was redlining that first 1k." (Editor's note: LetsRun.com would have Huling at 2:42 at the 1k)

Huling told LRC that he has two more steeples planned for this summer. The first will take place in Paris next Friday and then he'll race again in Zürich in August after the European Championships.

LRC asked Huling the obvious question - if Dan Lincoln's 8:08.82 is his top goal for the year - and Huling was having none of it.

"No," said Huling before the phone line went dead silent for five seconds. "I don't want to talk about American records."

So talk of the American record is a no-no for Huling, much like talk of a no-hitter is a no-no for a pitcher with one going on late in a game. In our minds, we think the analogy is apt, as he's got a very good chance of breaking it later this summer.

We did ask Huling if the weather was too hot and humid for a fast time, as web sites reported the weather in Lausanne at 9pm to be 81 degrees with 45% humidity and 78 degrees with 50% humidity at 10pm. Huling's race took place at 9:50 pm and conditions like that are far from ideal. Huling, however, said he felt as if the weather was ideal.

"I want to say it was perfect out - seventy-ish and no wind. We are 1,200 feet above the lake. You couldn't have asked for better weather."

Men's 100: Odds That Bolt Will Lose In 2010 Go Down Significantly
Mr. Unbeatable, Usain Bolt, returned to action after a 40-plus day layoff due to Achilles tendon problems. Given the long layoff, we thought there was a real good chance that Bolt would lose at some point this year. Certainly the rust would be there. If you watched this race, you're probably thinking, "It ain't going to be easy to beat him."

Bolt got off to a great start and then in our minds seemingly took it a bit easy. He still ran 9.82 and won comfortably. Just what the doctor ordered. Now, if Asafa Powell was running with a nice tailwind, he'd have probably run faster, but after watching this race, you'd be a fool to bet against Bolt in the Bolt-Powell matchup next week.

Men's 400: Wariner Runs Word Leader
American Jeremy Wariner got a much-needed win in a world-leading 44.57. After pulling up in the final of the USA meet, Wariner was aggressive from the start in Lausanne. He had the lead entering the homestretch and managed to hold on and get a new seasonal best. Wariner needed the seasonal best as he was pushed at the end, as the top four runners all broke 45 and the top five all set seasonal or personal bests. The announcer was right when he said, "The Wariner of old is far from back with us." Wariner is still a winner in 2010, but he's far from the totally dominant force that he used to be.

Men's 400h: Jackson Is Class Of Totally Loaded Field
Bershawn Jackson
was the class of this loaded field, which included the winner of the last 8 global championships at 400h in Angelo Taylor (2000 and 2008), Felix Sanchez (2001, 2003, 2004) and Kerron Clement (2007 and 2009). Jackson, the 2005 world champ, is clearly back in the form that gave him the 2005 world title, as his switch back to a 15-step approach continues to work in a big way. He was aggressive from the start and won in 47.62 - a time no one besides Jackson has equaled this year. Taylor and Sanchez both set seasonal bests in finishing 2nd and 3rd, whereas Clement was a total disaster and finished last.
