AZ.
I guess if a 5 is 5000, a 1 must be 1000. So maybe she is pacing 1000 of the 5000.
Centro added to the 13:30 heat
It is strange. He must be pacing. The heat will be won in 13:29 which he can run in his sleep.
OC baby
Meet us going to be in Orange County, not LA County.
Seems risky no matter what

She was going to go to the meet but we were told this morning that they determined she can't run it. The meet was sold to the local authorities as a pro meet so they were afraid it might result in the meet getting shut down so she now will go for it next weekend in Nashville I believe.
Along those lines, we were asked not to put up our preview until Friday as there is a fear that too much pre-meet publicity could results in the meet being shut down. Can you imagine that? After everyone has already travelled there?
We merged two threads both talking about the Bowerman people into 1. The 2nd thread title was "Jerry Sending BTC Babes/Bro to Sound Running Distance Carnival (12/4-5)"
not sure how they're gonna organize the meet now, south orange county is on fire and most of the oc/la area is covered in smoke. currently 150+ aqi throughout and it'll be worse later today and tomorrow. unfortunate, but new plans need to be made for this meet.
btw: pulling for my guy robert brandt to break through in the 10k. dude is fit right now and might be able to shock more people - not necessarily a win, but relative competitiveness throughout in a deep field.
But somebody said that there was a high school heat.
Where UC Irvine? Or do they not want people to know due to not wanting fans because of COVID?
Hutchins is listed in entries.
Probably been asked a bunch before, but when is the window for OT qualifier times? Are marks at these meets eligible for OT qualifiers?
Also, are they eligible for Olympic Standards?

OH NO!!! That's horrible news...
(And yet they have a High School 5k section on Saturday?) Are you SURE she's not going to run?
Meet currently planned for San Juan Capistrano. Smoke from new wildfire is a big problem - but also new stay at home order a major risk. wont be surprised if it gets shut down or moved to San Diego area.
How far is that from LA?
Houlihan said something about it in her insta post. Maybe usatf.tv

maybe on the way back from an injury or illness (didnt BTC cancel attendance at a meet previously because someone had covid?), and so just working his way back? Would make sense I guess not to him in a higher heat so he can judge how he feels?
pure speculation
