Did anyone else think Kemboi stepped over the curb onto the inside on a curve at one point?

I did not see that.
How come Matty Hughes has never seemed to get any better? 2:42 last K for that heat. Kemboi looking pretty good. 60 sec last lap jogging the last 60.
Bor ran well. So good to see the ARMY boys out there on the track.
can coburn take the heat? it looks super hot
He's wearing shorts for his heat - maybe he checked Letsrun just before he lined up.
He has a PR of 8:11..... that's pretty good.

She is super hot as well so it shouldn't bother her.
Heat #1
Belgium’s Jeroen D’Hoedt had 5 meters on the pack at 1k (2:48.22) as Hillary Bor was in 5th. Just before 2k, Uganda’s Benjamin Kiplagat injected some pace (5:42.82) with Bor in third but the pace was still very slow. The last 1k was bound to be the fasest.
At the start of the last lap, the top 4 of started to separate themselves from the rest of the pack. There were only three auto spots available, however, and in the end those went to Bor, Soufiane Elbakkali of Morocco and double Olympic champ Ezekiel Kemboi of Kenya. Canadian national record holder Matt Hughes will have to wait and see if he gets in on time.
Kemboi did his normal move of moving out to the outside. He finished in lane six and walked over the line even though his last 400 was about 60 flat (Bor was 59.5 ish).

Anybody else think it is interesting that Bahrain are buying up TnF athletes from other countries?
Evan the jaguar Jager is gonna kick some steeple ass! Go Jag!
It's a really cheap way to get your brand displayed. Nike already knew that.

Man bun for Jager?
'In the 2nd heat, the Bahrian guy has run 8:09 this year plus you've got Jager and one Kenyan Brimin Kipruto.
2:50..59 first 1k
How is LRC going to react if Bor beats golden boy in the final?
I think Benabbad is one of the most talented athletes out there.
Jager takes the lead
Made that look very easy.
