Schweizer dropped PR from 14:45.18 in Doha to 14:26.34.
18.84 seconds faster. Wow!
The BTC men's and women's runners are incredible. What a waste to have Nike and BTC infrastructure not highlight these amazing runners.
Two American women both originally from Iowa are now closer (or just as close) to the 5K WR than the current men's AR to WR. What are the chances? Crazy.

It'll be on YouTube tomorrow which is better than any other running groups out there.
8:18 equivalent 3000 for Schweizer, a lot faster than her 8:25 indoor record from a few months ago
I am expecting a US record or Canadian record (or both) in the men race

Coming off a pretty big injury. Was wearing 2 boots back in April. She got some kind of surgery after the olympics were cancelled. Not sure about specifics
mens 5k is live.

Houlihan is now the 12th fastest women ever and Schweizer is 14th fastest women ever at 5000m
Only 6 Ethiopian Women, 3 Kenyan Women and 1 each from The Netherlands and Russia have run faster
Was Centro at trackside cheering?
Fraser had elective surgery mid-May on both heels to remove bone spurs --Haglunds Deformity.
Check out her IG posts -- she's coming along quite well but no racing this summer.
These announcers are actually quite enjoyable. Seem like intelligent people who understand track and field, a coupling many T&F commentators seem to lack

Can we give a shout out to how good the Bowerman athletes are at PACING?!?!?! It almost doesn't matter who's leading, the pace is always spot on!
Grant Fisher leading them around now. Evan Jager right behind.
6:14.XX for 2400
