What happened to Leo Manzano?
That's what I'm saying! One min he's in top 5 then the next he's nowhere to be seen I was like wtf! Damn I had him upsetting legat I m tired of legat always winning we need alan webb back !
i could be wrong but it looked like someone cast a spell on him and he dissolved into the track.... not sure where the caster took his shot from, i swear i saw someone on the grassy knoll by the backstretch...

He was never really that great to begin with. His PRs make him an also ran on the international stage.
It looks as if Webb is a no show again.
Does he even care about running amymore?
I can name a half dozen US milers better than Manzano. I still think Lukezic and Myers are better.
It seems like lalang has reached his peak and is now on the way down.There has been no improvement since his performance at the olympics,infact his 1500 performance has dropped.
Rankin is also faster. Even though they both bombed at the Olympics I will take Lamong any day of the week over Manzano.
Webb was probably eating doughnuts that's why he didn't show and for manzano I hope everything is ok I would hate to see such a rising star vanish like he did I still don't no where he went
Those look like mid-70s times.
Maybe he should go see Vigilante. What I think is interesting is what good shape Leo looked in "Workout Wednesday" on flotrack. I guess just 'cuz you look muscular and fit doesn't mean it translates to running performance.
You're right. It doesn't.
It almost looked like his stride was compensating after the first 600 meters. I wonder if he was hurt
Nice race for Brannen, anyway

He cares. He was going to run but he showed up with a keg in the back of his pickup truck, and they wouldn't let him bring it into the stadium, so he said: 'if the keg leaves, I leave.' He left.
Fantastic race for Brannen coming off of some injury probs. I am amazed that Krumm still bothers, poor guy.
Well you've gotta hand it to him for standing by his values..
According to post race interview on Flotrack, Manzano felt the pace was a bit too fast, he let people pass him and then he lost it mentally. He said his training is going very well, he feels super fit and he just needs to get some races under his belt.
more like what happened to Lukezic? DQ? He got 2nd with a solid finish.
