Earlier this year, Thompson ran 9:02 for the steeple but now he's one of America's best in the 1500. As for McGree, just weeks ago she was DQd at USAs. But both have been running amazing of late and it continued tonight at Falmouth.

*Bill Rodgers, Frank Shorter, Toni Reavis, Bob Hodge and others remember Leonard in New England Runner.

Reavis expect a Kenyan-born, but NCAA trained athlete to win - either Sambu, Cheserek or Leonard Korir.

Moneghetti has held the course record since 1991 and the 27:56 man Summers ran 40:05 but his chip time said 40:00.

The 35-year old has been on fire of late. Larner is profiling every single Japanese Trials athlete. All 31 men and 12 women.
