Abdi almost stumbles! Glares at someone. The adrenaline will push him to top 3!

Actually that's a good point. I wasn't thinking about age cutoffs. Be really funny if this is him and he lied to get a time break.

I would salute his basterdry if he signed up again. It would make me feel a bit happy.

If it is him and he ran a qualifier, how did no one on this board catch it??!

I'm pretty sure it's not him but would totally laugh if it was the infamous Mr Rossi.

Rupp nearly tripped!!

The dude tried to take out Abdi

People that say Desi is falling off and surging... she's running a constant pace. It's the pack that's surging and slowing. She's running her normal even paced race that has suited her well through her career.

Des just took a short cut and jump a spot and closed the gap.

If you don't know what "SPD" is, don't talk about "short cuts."

Morun. It's about taking the "tangents" while others ran wide.

no way des gets back in it again. can't tell what's going on here

Wow, after catching the pack, Desi has lost 15 seconds in a 1/2 mile. Abdi still hanging with the men

who wants to see the Chinese guy fall off the treadmill

I would rather listen to the Chinese commentary than watching the crappy NBC.

Chinese coverage is great. Yes let's split screen and watch some random lady run slow on a treadmill.

Galen is a noob. First he clips Meb and now Abdi. What an ass.

Abdi moved in front of Rupp, got tripped, then got mad? Stop cutting people off black cactus. You were wrong.

Seems like he is having issues with his mentality. Not good.

Geez Jordan looks relaxed.

Is she running in a "bouncy" way, if you get my drift?

I think you're right, she looks very solid and relaxed, unlike someone I can't tell who, he is between lead pack and Desi.

However, I saw her picking at her clothes and tugging at her shorts, something is not feeling right.

Agreed. The Chinese picture quality is awesome.
