Paul Chelimo Wins USATF 5k Champs in Sprint Over Shadrack Kipchirchir, Emily Sisson Cruises to Win

Official corrected results:

1 Chelimo

2 Kipchirchir

3 Kebenei

4 Jenkins

5 Erassa

6 Korir

7 Bor

8 Centrowitz

9 Tessema

10 Fink

Unsurprising results for the top 2 men. Those Army boys are fast and excel at this distance. I love Centro but clearly 5k isn’t his strength.

I wish Infeld was healty and racing.

It drives me nuts that Nike has athletes all wearing the same uniform. Can we get a different color scheme and design for each athlete please! Nothing like watching a diamond league meet and half the field is wearing the same uniform.

Pretty sure that's the point.

Looks like the Kenyan Championships to me. Yes, I said it. I get it. They're here. They're citizens just like you and me blah blah, blah. We don't go over there, become citizens and run off with their goats and brides. It isn't the US Championships if it is open to literally anyone that signs up to be a US citizen. Born here? Run. Not born here? No way. This isn't the Rift Valley, but judging from the men and women on the US road circuit looking for an easy paycheck you'd never know.

She's injured once again ...

You seem like a PoS. This isn’t even thinly veiled racism.

It is not the 'born in the US championships', it is the US championships. And if you want to go to Kenya and try your luck, who's stopping you? Heard of the Robertsons?

You're absolutely correct thats the point, instant recognition they all sponsored by same sponsor!

Just a reminder, unless you're Native American, you are the product of immigrants. And even Native American (indians) came from somewhere else.

Immigration IS the american dream

Why? She's a cringe.

Based and Mollypilled

Not to continue the hype (OK just a little bit more), I really think K. Tuohy could have run sub-16 on this course with a group of women to do the pacing...

Nike actually seems to be getting a little batter about this(although maybe not at every race) At Chicago, we had Mo Farah and the 2nd placer in red, Rupp, Kirui and Osako in white, and some of the other Nike guys in black+green. It made it easier to follow.
