Stuczynski improved her outdoor American record and took a good shot at the world record. Tyson Gay looked untouchable in the 200, but beatable in the 100. Jeremy Wariner won by .29 seconds, but that was closer than normal. Allyson Felix was only 4th in the 100. Lagat won the rough and tumble 1500 and Galen Rupp got the surprise win in the 3k.
