Levins still in the front group! Jeilan is lurking in the back of the group.

Levins having a hard time keeping up.
Choge reeled in, but still may have run a more even race to maintain a kick vs others chasing him down.
2:42 4th km... slow
Not exactly a packed house in Glasgow
Levins!
Levins into 2nd with 400m!
Wow. Alamirew and Gebrihwet just made the field look like children. 53.97 leader to leader for the last 400m. 13:10+ winning time. Drug testing really is working.
I thought Alamirew and Gebhriwet blew it out too early and Soi would come back.
Nice last sprint lap 53.97
What an odd race. Alamirew and Gebriwhet act as if they're running a 200m dash. They both hit 150 to go and look completely drained. Not even that fast of a last lap.
some guys went a long way to run like 13:20's, wow
What a waste.
What the hell was that from Alamirew? Practically stopped at 150 to go. I could understand slowing a little, but that was bizarre.

But not for long. 6th in 13:15.38.
Gebriwhet has run like crap this year. This may not have seemed very impressive but at least he beat some big names.
Had Rupp or Farah had been on the line, they would have tried to find ways to drop them by 4k instead. Rupp would have also ran a 53 last lap given the pacing conditions of the lead pack today.
Also nice to see the BBC Feed does not split off to the field events until the races are over. MUCH Better than watching the universal IAAF feed that cuts to the field events every few laps

Levins got spanked that final lap. Unlike the Americans he at least tried to take the lead.
what's up with lagat? looks like he aimed for 13:30 - is that all he has now?
It is amazing that they run this slow. What is wroing?
T. Bekele 13:28. Is he 44?
