That was a really strange 400m, it's like every single name except Jaeger and Klaver just decided to stroll. Were they that affected by the cold and rain?
Wouldn’t surprise me if Wiley runs a PR. Tends to run her fastest post USA’s.
Last place, 1:59.64
Yeah she looked gassed from the start. I think I saw her in nearly every DL 800m this season because she was leading the DL in pts funny enough. Ran too many probably.
Yeah it was a weird 56 though. Because she started really evenly - didn't get out too hard at all, ran a great line (again) from the break to the 200m point, but maybe she accelerated too much around that curve because I swear there was a moment up the home straight she was looking at those blue lights and visually put the breaks on a bit - and still ran a low 56.
Combined with the weather, that's how I think we ended up a second off Silesia. But if 1.55.69 is an average run for her then it's hard to see how she is even being challenged in Tokyo.
