I was in the stadium and it was far from ideal. Windy and quite chilly in the shade, which was most of the stadium for most of the night. Flags blowing hard. For most of the meet athletes were in the holding pen before going on to track in full tracksuits, with beanies or hoods up. Mentally, probably already shut out notions of fast times.
Interesting to watch Farah look so calm just before race. Walked out to start chatting to Kejelcha. Even had his arm around him joking. Mind games perhaps?
Ndiku seemed to be sweating more than others for most of race, so not sure how ready he was to challenge if he hadn't fallen.
Mead looked terrible from the start.
Women's St was interesting. Coburn seemed frustrated running off the lead. Her technique so much better than Kenyan's that she was running in to back of them after each barrier, chopping her stride over and over - hence taking the lead I think.
Franck only picked off Quigley over last lap and was 30m off her for most of 2nd half. Looked like she was watching the leaders half the race.
