Any links? Thanks.

"Keely is in 1:52 shape"

Also . . . extra bad news for Keely that Jakob was watching the race, she just lost her shot with him, not fast enough :(

That defeat was nothing to do with tactics. Moraa has got inside Keely's head. The Paris version of Keely would have won this easily.

Wow, sort of unexpected, but entertaining. Moraa is no pushover. All I can say is, T&F is a very hard sport and nobody can be expected to run their best and win every time out, even Jakob. Well, maybe this doesn’t apply to Kipyegon, but everybody else, yes for sure!

She was but is she still? Mu will likely want to control the race and make it fast. If she slows it too much, Moraa’s kick is hard to beat. If she tries to run away with it if she’s in sub-1:55.5 shape sure that’ll play. But if not I’d be worried about Keely being patient, and it turning into a time trial for her.

Don’t think so. Moraa dragged her out fast, slowed her down and fought off multiple moves. Whereas in Paris she ran an even effort with no resistance.

Still waiting for Reekie to get it right, thought today would go better after 4:01 PB last week.

bold that so many of you think that can happen to Keely but can't happen to Athing too..

Walt Disney must be doing the starting gun

Boiiiing

Kelly got trapped by the runner on her outside at 300.

the track material looks cheap. Not fast imo

Izumya is a phenomal hurdler for his height

Izumiya with the sick lean. The hurdles come up to his chest!

No excuses. Keely was in good position on the second lap. She just wasn’t good enough to overtake Moraa.

Ugh! Not available in NYC but thanks anyway.

I followed letsrun advice: "get the VPN we have at LetsRun.com, and watch it live on the WA youtube page." The VPN is NordVPN. I set the server to Albania - which I didnt see on the massive list of countries covered by rightsholders - and the WorldAthletics youtube shows me nothing but old videos. How does this work? What country do I need to go through?
