Add in Amos and Botswana is one shy of a Gold medal contending 4x4.

Karabo Sibanda was an olympic finalist last year

new Canadian record also for Bishop

perfect + splits for semenya, looked like 56 mid 59 flat somewhere around there?

Wow Ajee. She must have gorged on tainted beef last night

Still, the title of this race should be "world's top female 800m runner nearly beats a couple of average male club runners'

Women's 800, best race I've seen in ages. Damn.

Yup. Best race if you enjoy watching she-males and dopers that were caught doping but not suspended..

THink he's injured?

What?

Brenda looked good, but got trapped in the middle after moving up with Wilson. She was gamed, but tried to get out of the middle, but got tripped or pushed off a little.

She looked good to me.

4 national records in a field of 10

She started falling back really badly on the backstretch, I'm wondering if something happened. She looked off at that point but strong elsewhere.

let's talk about hassan

off the back at 200m

pretty big move around 350 to get back into the race

baggiest jersey ive ever seen

156.81

has anyone ever broken 1:57 and 15:00 in the same season? 1:57 and 14:45?

What's all this meringue? Start the race already.

Can confirm.

And Hassan 1.56 - not bad for a 1500/5000m runner.

Wow. Huge, huge run for Ajee.

why do they give 600 splits but not 200? never made sense to me
