Are you guys brain dead? The athlete was Kenyan. Kenyan Trials are in Kenya. "US Olympic Trials, in America."

looks like only 2 studs per heat the rest of the way (where studs means people Ive heard of). hopefully murph holds on
Daddy Mak is up next!!!! Turbos!
Murphy is in at this point. Hopefully slow heats to come
Jock is very lucky he can call himself an Olympian. Fluke day at the Trials. Knew he wouldn't advance on this stage.
Dibaba and Burka warming up together. While Ayana alone

50/56 split for Berian....just awful. He's going to need to do better than that if he wants to make the final.
Are you a pinhead? First of all, he didn't run 56; that was the idiot Hutchings being unable to talk and subtract at the same time.
He closed in about 55.1.
Those splits are perfectly fine for him in this race.
Went to the front to stay out of trouble, ran hard enough to secure his spot from 500 to 750, then shut it down in the stretch and held onto third pretty comfortably.
An excellent job.
Murphy might've taken a page from Boris on staying out of trouble.
Hopefully, he'll squeeze in anyway. Needs Heat 5 to go SLOW.
Jock is the one who ran terribly.

Heat 5 SUPER-slow. Good news for Murph.

I hope they'll have 2020 US Olympic Trials in Ushuaia, America(s).
Amos out, not that surprising anymore.
choke and a half by amos
Wow lol
that heat looked like a HS race....56 at 400
certified doper wins slow heat 5
Was telling my wife the Amos story of growing up with nothing, hitting fame and fortune in 2012, just partying it up and good for him. He came from nothing and made something of himself. I didn't even consider him for a Semi based on his form and dedication.
I am worried about Murph. When is the next round (Quarters or straight to Semis)?
doe anyone have times from first 2 heats?
BTW, this is Molly Huddle weather!!
Kenyans hate the rain!!? Not sure about Ethiopians.
