I watched Cam do a track workout not long ago and not only did he crush it, he didn't seem like it was any big deal. I'm guessing something actually did go wrong during this race (went out too hot). He is definitely more fit than Flanagan.

I really like Klosterhausen in the longer races. I think she has a tough time out kicking her peers in the shorter stuff but she should be able to really punish her rivals in the longer runs.
Love seeing Klosterhalfen getting good results again. What do we reckon will end up being her best distance?
I think we've got a lot more to see from her over 10k. Whether or not we'll ever see her true potential remains to be seen.
Extrapolating from the 5000m and 21.1 a sub 30 min 10k should be possible. As for the potential, just look whom Koko beat in 2019 (and the 3000m is still worth more with the IAAF points revised for road running because supershoes) and what they have been running in the last two years.
I fear that she might never again reach her best 1500/mile potential and unfortunately didn't race in the Monaco mile 2019 or similarly fast race in that season for a 3:55 or mile equivalent.
But if she can get ahead of injury and health problems I'd not be surprised at sub 1:05 HM, ca. 29:30 10k and 14:15 5k in a few years.
