Bernard Lagat, Wilson Kipsang and Haile Gebrselassie are the biggest names, but the winner will likely come from the quartet of Stephen Sambu, Stephen Mokoka, 10K road WR holder Leonard Komon or '11 10,000 world champ Ibrahim Jeilan. Defar, who missed 2014 due to pregnancy, will race for the first time in 20 months against a field that includes Betsy Saina and local favorites Gemma Steel and Jo Pavey.

Kyle Merber got the victory in the mile (3:56.72) over Riley Masters (3:56.75) and Trevor Dunbar (3:57.19). Heather Kampf won the 800 (2:01.25); NZ's Zane Robertson got the 3K win in 7:41.37.

GB's Gemma Steel was 2nd woman while  Ireland's two-time reigning champion Fionnuala Britton was only 4th. Spain won the men's team competition while Great Britain won for the women. In the Under-23 race, Iona's NCAA 3rd placer Kate Avery was 4th. Oklahoma State's Tom Farrell was 12th in the men's senior race.
