Katir and McSweyn time. I'll go with Katir 7:28 FTW not knowing what the pacer will go with. Krop third I suppose.

at this rate i wouldnt be surprised if jewett was the most likely US 800 runner to medal. Hoppel is in terrible form and really hasnt had a great race all year. still trying to figure out what murphy is doing with all this racing, but he has a good record of performing when it counts despite poor results in other meets so i still think he has a decent shot. the 800m is such a toss up tho
Jewett is going to be the mystery meat after his meteor progression in June but then no races until T-Town
Can't wait for Katir to pop.
Katir is a brand new star. He’s looking very dangerous for Tokyo.
7:27.64
I don't know what to make of this guy. NR and Meet Record.
Does Katir get an MF for that? He's already had an MF season and this doesn't quite beat an out of nowhere 3:28
McSweyn is the worlds greatest pacer...
1:54.3 last 800 for Katir
Katir Olympic medalist?
Yes.
Katir is all of a sudden one of the fastest runners ever over 1500m, 3000m, 5000m. Bekele, Geb, Komen, El Guerrroj, Kejelcha, Ingerbrigsten..............Katir

Yeah, still think Katir would have edged him out but it really doesn't get better than that pacing-wise for Katir. Great race, and strong 7:35 for Butchart!
Viciosa's NR goes
Looked easy, not winded or anything, talking smack to the camera. Could the guy be any more obvious about being on the juice.
I LOVE the way McSweyn runs, he always sticks to the pacer and if he's fit and in the race you know it won't turn tactical

Ethiopia's anti-doubling policy gives him a real chance saving him from Kejelcha or Barega. 2:23-mid close will make him formidable vs. anyone.
even tho katir is suspicious as hell...i cant deny i like the guys flair. def a contender for a medal imo. a shame we cant see him (and others) in the 1500 and 5000
Katir has a medal with this form.
Not entirely sure I believe he’s clean, but nobody is as smooth as this guy right now.
