He hung on for that 13:49 after pacing, which gives him the B standard. I bet he could run 13:33 fresh, which would land him the A for the trials.

I agree though that he would need to get in a few faster 5s in the next month and half (he would need the olympic A as well), but it is interesting to consider. His racing strategy reminds me of Rupp in indoors his during his senior campaign- when he was able to just mow people down in the final 600 of the 5k.


If he wants to go to the Olympics he needs the Olympic A standard either before or at the trials. I think that is far more likely in the 1500 than the 5k I know he squeaked under the B trials standard in the 5k but he will be too far back in line.
