Has Infeld or Molly Huddle ever been considered great kickers? they fought over that medal that Huddle celebrated too early and lost. Emma Coburn? Courtney Freirichs?
None of those four have a monster kick, I absolutely think a strength runner like Monson or Sisson without much kick can still nab a bronze or silver if everything goes right.
No, but definitely good enough to medal in a championship race. Infeld/Huddle closed in around 63 seconds in a slow WC 10,000. The top 2 closed in around 61. Monson has to be able to close in low 60s to have a chance to medal regardless of pace.
