I love tactical races just as much as the next guy, but when you have such a giant lead like that, so pissed at Kiprop for easing up **soooo** much at the end. 3:51 are you kidding me? Alan Webb remains the fastest miler of this millennium.

6 3:44.95 Hicham El Guerrouj MAR 14.09.74 1 Roma 29.06.2001

2001 is this millennium soooo

This was Philip Ingebrigtsen's first mile ever.

3.55 is a good start

This is one of the worst DL meets ever.

The Schippers goes and runs sub 22 in COLD AS SHIT weather

Elijah Manangoi still the best of the rest. Has beaten Makhloufi and Iguider twice.

Stadium is half full. Not the Bislett games of past times.

Whats the point of pace makers anymore - cant remember a race when the athletes last went with the pace makers. Waste of time and money.

Kiprop in Birmingham last Sunday?

Kiprop collapsed. Not easing up. Just not in 3:44 shape.

Wow. 21.95 in 59 degrees.

That was an amazing run by Schippers.

The only meets that seem to have any atmosphere are those in the middle east...Rabat had people going crazy when Iguider won his race.

OMG they already do that and NO ONE goes for it, thats why i said make it so they dont get their appearance fee if they dont hit pace for a certain % of the race, and i didnt say WR pace, but no more of this tactical shit....no more 1500m in 3:40's (not that it happend in this one but it has)

no more of this 13:40 5k crap, thats slow like lindgren ran that fast in the 60's!

hit times or dont get paid, no more of this "well i got my money now i will just slog in the back"

You know Monaco is in 6 days. Very unlikely Kiprop is going for a mile record just 6 days before he goes for a 1500 record. This is very likely his tuneup for Monaco.

One month and six days.

Ok, my bad. Read the calendar wrong.

Kipyegon and Muir following the rabbit. 2:06 800 m.

Muir still with Kipyego with a lap to go. 3:11.39 1200m.

Laura Muir 4:19!!! Wow what a run!

Muir Holy Shit

To be clear Kipyegon won in 4:18.63, Muir 2nd only a meter or so behind but Kipyegon eased up

#2 all time for GBR
