I have to admit she kicked like Jim Ryun just now. Kipyegon has the same kick.

Win or lose here, she's as much a baller there is in all of T & F.

Everyone in the field is an elite athlete with a high Vo2 max, running efficiency etc. Yet, it looked like a high school dual meet with the runners being lapped and gapped by 30 seconds plus. The distribution should be much closer. Are we supposed to believe that some athletes just train harder and are more gifted? Gifted to the extent of lapping other elites?
What if the Phillies woman who took the home run ball from the kid ran out and tried to take one of the shot puts ?

Take a "shot put?" She might as well try to take a "discuss."

Some of the slower runners have noticeably poorer form…
Note that 27 were on the W 10,000 Start List.
25 actually started.
21 finished.
Crouser should be shrined.
This gap is not big enough to stop Bol
Edit: Nevermind, well done USA
Bol closing!
Netherlands third leg sold.
Dutch men left too big of a gap.
US actually ran to form for once and made it a precession.
Kaczmarek 😍
Looked like Femke knew gold wasn't possible, so made sure she did exactly enough to lock up silver and no more. Looked very calm.
Nice job by team USA.
Bol might have been more aggressive if she knew HOlmes was gonna stagger in with a 50.8. YIKES
Bummed but Femke looked fantastic. Easy to see why Syd ducked.
McKiver deceptive 43.91 leg despite everyone closing in on his leg on the first half - definitely ran it smart and super even relatively speaking
