Also her indoor 3K was impressive but she just ran a pretty slow 1500 considering she had a pacer and good competition...
Probably more like 1502 with a 450 mile close... Doubt she is anywhere close to 1440 and 430.... 1457 to 1505 seems more likely...
After Wake Forest I also have some doubts. Mostly how her training is going because the time was so far off what they were aiming for. Tbs, it was just one race. If I had to guess now 14:57-15:09 at Sound Running.
However, I do still think she has the capability to go far faster based on her performance in indoors and general trajectory.

Even the recent 4:08 is indicative of a 14:49 5,000m…

I dont think it is a disaster. If the 1500 had been paced at 4:05 pace she likely would have run that. Still probably in 8:35 shape which would suggest 14:50s possible. If you swing for a home run 3 times you risk striking out. This looked to me like 2 hard swings and then settling for a single vs striking out.
The fields are filling up. All the races should be interesting. For example, the men's 5K, heat 2 now has high schoolers Connor Burns and Tyrone Gorze. Is Rupp's 13:37.91 HSR within reach?

The TEN will take place on March 5th and will host one of the best distance nights in the World. Check here for entries, schedule, results, and viewing info.
Its clear she has no future in the 1500. This is her only hope for getting a podium in Nationals Maybe.
She performed pretty well against Muir at Millrose mile and was the top US finisher. But, she may be shifting focus to 5k which is a problem for Morgan, Henes and the rest

Some other entries-
5k early heat- Bunnage, Hutchins, Mackay, Covert
1500m early heats - Chamberlain, Rohatinsky, Galvydyte, Barnett, Degenero
Steeple - Wayment, Jennings, Gear
10k - O'Keefe - we just saw her PR at 30:55 so perhaps she is going for the qualifer
Also, the main event 1500's look really good, both men's and women's
She’ll definitely be in the lead pack until the late stages of the race. It’ll probably be paced to 3k in 8:55-9:00 and then be a matter of how far the top women can take it under 15. Tuohy should be one of the sub-15 women if she has a good day.
She’s not gonna run the last mile in 4:30 though—nobody in this race will. It’s not reasonable to expect her to run 2+ miles at 5k PR pace and then run the last mile at 8:23 3k pace… If she stated a goal of being able to close in 4:30 after USAs last year, she probably meant that’s what she’ll need to be capable of to make teams in championship races (slower, tactical affairs).
It’s certainly going to be an absolutely fun race to see.
I’ll be watching that last mile to see how many (if any) run the final mile in 4:30.
Andrews came closer than I would have guessed with 4:34.35 for the last 1600. Tuohy split 4:52.50. 4:30 for the last mile of a fast 5k is a much bigger feat than you thought.

And, she mentioned again in her interview tonight that’s still the goal, close in 4:30
