2018 5th Avenue Mile Official Thread- Race Live on NBC Sunday 12-1 pm Eastern

Sam Parsons ran 3:58. He along with Chris O'Hare stayed along and talked/took pictures with fans after. Centro took a few as well but he wasn't trying to hang around too long. The womens race was actually pretty exciting in person with Quigley looking like she was about to take the win late.

TV coverage is so crappy. You would think they would have covered it at the end as a story.

Desi Linden. Ran 5:09.

As part of an 8 x 1 mile workout.

Centro?

The 5th Ave results site is always a total disaster. How they don’t have the full elite field results up yet hours after the race is ridiculous.

Now that the racing is done and the off season has begun, can we talk about Rachel Schneider’s interesting relationship situation?

Do elaborate. Cause she was on the map pretty darn good this season.

By the time I found the results page, I'd forgotten who I was going to look up.

Quigley has the season momentum.

I think you had the wrong season -- next year will be interesting.

I watch Results pop up immediately after the race here:

Sure. What is it?

I'm guessing Berian and Windle went out hard to try and get the 880 split, and then died? Same with Brown on the women's side?

Otherwise wow, what happened to them?

NO ENDURANCE.

Weaksauce performances.

You CANNOT be a true elite 800 meter runner without mile endurance. Some of these folks need to get their shiz together.

And lol @ True and Centro. OWNAGE.

So only one American in the top 7?? Looks like Americans got owned.

The closest those two came to leading was a second after the start. They faded soon after.

Parsons gapped the pack early, easily was leading at the halfway prime point, and led through 3/4.

Kudos to him for hanging in there and collecting the $1k prime prize too as he broke 4.

These races were different as they seemed very lily white, sort of the Caucasian road mile championships. The NYRR seemed to invite mostly US and GBR runners.

Notably missing were Africans, Houlihan all chasing bigger prizes elsewhere.

anyone have a video of the race?

Seen smooching Efraimson.

It was more than a smooch if you are talking about the reception Friday night.

Some guys at the bar (I don’t think part of the Fifth Avenue Mile contingent) were trying hard not to watch but you could just tell watching two fit young ladies necking was their wet dream.

Common!!! Let's see a pic? I think this is a sham! Not that it doesn't sound intriguing, although there could be more interesting scenarios.
