As soon as they let Green back into I thought he was the best pure 800 m runner of the 4. Martin and Strand would probably beat Green easily in a 5000 yet they let this race become a 300 m sprint.
Almost looked like Langon was having words (seemed friendly) with Wolfe as they handed off to the anchors. Probably both saying MY guy is gonna take it--fun clash in bad conditions.
