Hm. Not bad but not what we were all hoping.

Good job my Boy Abdi for a great run
sets the bar a little higher for goucher
great race for reid, too bad he barely missed the standard.
How about Culpepper? That seems like a fine effort as well.
Holy Shit! Culpepper ran a PB!
Five Americans under 13:30. Good.
I find this staggering. He's gotta be 33. Hasn't raced on the track forever. No lead in races. Several recent marathons under his belt. Imagine what he could do in the 10k right now.
very good for culp considering he has not been on the track for 2 years. he is setting him self up for big things in chicago-you watch!
so this makes it the second time Mottram gets outkicked by an Ethiopian in London.

Agreed- he's run 2:09:41, and he'll be 33 this year- perfect age for setting a PB.
Who cares about a stupid 5k Fun run on the track. big deal. Marathon baby is were its at?

i don't think he is mad he got outkicked twice by the two greatest runners of all time.
My mistake....Mottram's PR is 12:55.76 (run at this meet last year)
Who gives a shit about a stupid race on the track that goes around and around a circle. Boring..............
That's got put him pretty high in all time age group for the 5k. Spivey and Plas were fast in their mid 30's. Steve Scott, not sure.
Your wrong. Only 4 americans under 13:30. Abdi does not count. He ain't american. Last I checked he was a blackie from somewhere else.............Not the
hall ran a 73s last lap!?
anybody got video of this like the 1500
