Wejo wraps up his thoughts from Eugene about Pre.
Lagat was really pleased with his 13:14 season opener (and Masters WR) which got him 4th. He was motivated by the disappointing race he had here last year where he says he was "embarrassed".
He ran 9.99 to get 3rd at Pre.
Kemboi (8:01.71) outkicked Jairus Birech (8:01.83) as Jager was 4th in 8:05.28, his fastest-ever opener. Justin Gatlin kept winning with a world-leading 19.68 in the 200 while Mutaz Essa Barshim cleared 2.41 but chose not to go any higher even though he had no misses in the competition.

Kejelcha arrived, Galen Rupp had a nice opener, and Bernard Lagat set another record.
The last lap came down to a three way battle for the win, but Farah blew away Paul Tanui and World XC champ Geoffrey Kamworor in the final stretch.
Kejelcha ran 13:10.54 to win the tactical race while Galen Rupp was 3rd (13:12) after leading with a lap to go.
Bartoletta won the LJ and Kovacs the SP.
Overall, I am really happy with it, and I’m excited to see what the rest of the season has in store."
