Athing looked stressed at 150 on the curve. I'm REALLY surprised she held off Hodgkinson who seemed to look more comfortable. Does Mu have big finishing speed? Rodgers and Wilson disappointing.
Mu's stature is kinda a give and take situation. She can cover more ground with her long strides, but she has way less acceleration and can be caught by a really good kick.
That really looked dirty. Once she drifts out why is she allowed to cut her off?
People will really conjure anything in their mind. Mu literally gives Keely a gift of an inside lane to pass. She never gets level and Mu cut her off? Please. Rewatch the 2007 5,000 where Lagat actually pulled that move.
Keeley knew from watching Mu a lot that she likes to run in the middle of lane 1 no matter what. She almost capitalize on that opportunity coming in the inside of Mu.
