HEAT TWO:
Heat two didn’t start out much faster than heat one as Lauren Fleshman, who has struggled with injuries this year, took the field through 200 in 39 seconds. (Incidentally, this field was short two as three-time Olympian Jenn Rhines was a late-scratch.) But by 400 the pace was a tad more honest, as the pack hit the first lap in 78.0. Molly Huddle, Amy Hastings,Tara Erdmann and Kim Conley were in close pursuit as the second heat hit 800 10 seconds ahead of the pace set in heat one.
As they hit 1000 in 3:15.04, Alisha Williams and Hastings took over the lead. The pace didn’t increase enough to shake things up, however, and all twelve women stayed very much in the hunt as the field hit the 1600 in 5:12.0, with Huddle now sharing the pacing duties with Hastings.
The pack hit 2K with a slower lap of 79.3 and 6:31.3 for a 3:16 kilo. Everyone was still in the hunt as the controlled, even tempo had some runners out into the second lane. 10K Olympian Hastings looked particularly composed.
Coming into 2800, Magdalena Lewy Boulet made a play for the lead, which seemed to force Huddle’s hand as she then took the lead at 78.1. 3K was split at 9:46 (3:15 last 1000) and all of a sudden the second heat was slower than heat one, which had started out so pedestrian.
A 75.3 by Huddle brought the still tightly bunched pack through 3200 in 10:23.5. The pace continued to pick up as Huddle then ran 7.37 with Kim Conley on her shoulder and Erdman and Liz Maloy in close contact.
The pack was through 4K in 74.4 and 12:51.6. After a string of 3:15-3:16 first three 1K splits, that was a 3:05 and now things began to open up. Huddle remained in control with Conley and Maloy looking very strong right on her heels.
A 72.5 by Huddle further ratcheted up the intensity and a group of three (Huddle, Maloy, Conley) had a three meter gap on Erdman with a lap to go. A larger chase pack fought for the final spots. Maloy came on at the end to take the win in 15:46.00 as an extremely strong-looking Huddle eased up, finishing only .05 back. Conley hung on for third and Erdman was a strong fourth while Alisha Willianm was fifth and an inspired Fleshman had a great kick to grab the last auto qualifying spot in sixth.

is that flower in montano's head regulation size or what
Montano ... baller.
Real nice close by Geena Gall. Schmidt hung strong too, faded into 4th for a few meters but held on to pass Beckwith.
Montano looks like a man. The flower makes her look like a tranny.
What a joke Montano is. Why is she wearing that dumba$$ flower?
Webb time!
why go out in 55. to run a 1:59... terrible
Someone take a look under that skirt!

she is an ncaa champ, usa champ, and now an olympian
you're an internet troll
My dad, a physician who has never seen a professional track race, walks into the room and goes "That girl with the flower is DEFINITELY on steroids. Did you see her back? There is no way to get that muscle and definition in a woman without steroids." Hmm...definitely made me stop and think.
The above four posters (not the Webb guy) are little bitches.
I don't know what to make of Montano. 55/64 another silly 400 split. Out in the first round if she does that in London.
How is she in a tactical race? Will she be any use at getting through the rounds?
