agreed with those praising the results site, absolutely fantastic. Live updating splits as well, no need to refresh.
Only problem with the results website is they did not make a way to directly link to a certain result page. Otherwise very good.

IMPOSSIBLE
A lot of notable American results. In my entirely subjective opinion, in descending order of interest:
1. Ajee Wilson wins Women's 800m in 1:59.72 (59.44, 60.29). Nothing wrong with her despite sub-par Euro results. She'll be a contender for a minor medal in Rio.
2. Ben True 3rd in Men's 1500m in 3:36.05 (54.26 final lap). We've never seen this kind of closing speed from True at the pro level, and it could serve him well in a tactical 5,000m final in Rio.
3. Kate Murphy wins High School Girls Dream 1500m in an Olympic Trials Qualifying 4:07.21. She's only a HS junior.
4. David Verburg with a 44.98 season's best for 3rd in the Men's 400m. Seems to be rounding into shape nicely for the Trials.
5. Numerous intersting non-winning performances in the Women's 800m:
-2 USA Molly Ludlow 1:59.93. Could she finally make the US team?
-3 USA Heather Kampf 2:00.55. May contend for a 1500m spot.
-6 USA Treniere Moser 2:01.94. One last hurrah in the 1500m?
-7 USA Morgan Uceny 2:02.00. Is she back?

Dood is coming back from multiple lower leg injuries.
Real mess.
Give him a break, courageous guy on the comeback.

Back? She ran a 4:03.94 winning 2 weeks ago.
Yeah
The whole field absolutely smoked the world record in the 500

Uceny has run lots faster for 800, but not for a few years -- this is her fastest 800 since 2011. So it seems with this and especially her 4:03 that she is closer now to her best form than she has been for a long time.
With a birthday of 15 August 1999, murphy is still only 16 too. Has this year and 2 more to take a shot at efraimson's AJR (of course efraimson has the rest of this year to take that lower as well).

Yes. And the webcast was solid. If I'm going to pay all webcasts better be like this in the future. I can't stand amateur webcasts when I have to pay.

For real. 44.28 for 500m is 8.85 per 100m.
With perfectly even splits Van Niekerk would have been 17.71 for 200 and 35.42 for 400. Incredible!!
Hopefully they had equipment set up for official 100/200/400 splits ...
So sad for Renny Quow ... you crush the 500 WR only to finish 7th and last.
When I click on
all I get is a blank page. Any other link to the masters mile that works?
What is up with the BAA runners? O'Hare was the rabbit for the 5K, only made it 1600 and was off pace by a bit and struggling? They are not really performing well?

I'll get the results from a free internet website, and pass them on to you.

At least they are DQ'ing sprinters for false starts unlike the Prefontaine meet.

Leaving 3 people left in a race?
They need a lot of work to make this legit. I was there. The athletes were laughing at it. Only adidas athletes, probably to meet a brand appearence quota for adidas.
Great meet for spectators, $10 admission, could sit wherever you wanted, got to go down on the track for the 5k, free tshirt if you were there early enough, really cheap concessions, and really easy to get pictures with pros. I got multiple, and my friend rubbed shoulders with van nierk because they were both getting ketchup at the postrace barbeque, which was included in the $10 admission. Took a picture with nick willis who had a hamburger in his hand, and robby Andrews called a guy a d*ck because the guy asked what his 800m time was in college and then said that it wasn't 1:43. Salisbury was really cool when I got a picture with him, and my picture with cory McGee was probably the best picture ive ever been in.
