Results from the 2010 Melbourne Track Classic below.
The best race on the program was a matchup of Olympic 1500m gold medallist Asbel Kiprop of Kenya versus Olympic 1500m silver medallist Nick Willis of New Zealand.
And the winner was... Jeff Riseley of Australia. Riseley is a 3:50 miler (3:32.92 1500m), but does not get a lot of attention outside of Australia as he never has made an Olympic or World Championship final. Jeremy Roff (a 3:34 guy) was 2nd and Nick Willis 3rd and Kiprop fourth after Kiprop got clipped up and fell off the pack.
The performance of the meet was David Rudisha's 1:43.15 800m which set a new Australian all-comers record. LetsRun.com fan favorite Ryan Gregson was 2nd in 1:46.04.
In case you forgot, like we did, Rudisha ran 1:42.01 last year. He clearly is the top 800m runner in the world right now. He told Runners Tribe, "I expected to run 1:43 today."
