Rowbury and Ryan Hill not looking too good today. Maybe tried too hard for indoors.

Centro too.

Is there a live results link?

How did Alexa Efraimson run?

I'm sure there is a good reason they are not showing the results after each event. I just can't think of what it would be.

I really don't like complaining, but this meet is exceptionally slow in getting the results online. All other Diamond League meets have live results from field events and results from running events are ready within a minute or so after the race has finished. Here they don't even have women's 1500 m results online, though the race finished more than 15 minute ago.

Well executed. That's why I love the hurdles, it's like watching F1 racers fly around the Monaco bends within millimeters of the barriers.

Strange comparison, watching hurdles isn't dull and the race takes only seconds instead of 90 minutes of tedium.

I should clarify that I only watch some sort of highlight reel. There are some incredible moments, but no, I don't have the patience, or vision, to spot out all the best moments on my own.

This is why Ben True will be our best 5000m runner at the Olympics.

sanya is done

Centro is too busy driving his car and eating junk food. I honestly don't get Centrowitz. That guy has to have the worst diet/lifestyle out of all professional runners across any distance

Richards-Ross DFL in 52.something.

Miller wins in 50.14

Please go away, sanya Richards.

Why did they interview Richards Ross after the race?

True just got licked by one Hassan Mead, who is having a helluva year so far.

Kiprop wearing the same sharp blue. I like that kit, or at least the distinctiveness of it.

Gun off.

Because she is a client of Max.

If she doesn't make the final at the Trials, can Max still insert her in the relay pool?

Teardrop formation, Hunter in the back of a bunch, single file up front
