Cranny coming off The 10, Morgan coming back from a long trip to China. They looked shaky in the 3K, I knew they wouldn't have any legs for today. but hey, free trip to Jamaica.
All true, but yet this was another reminder that the US women are a non factor in global 5000s. So strange when results at 10000 have been respectable.
I agree. though looked like Cranny at least tried to go out with them for a few laps but found herself in no mans land and dropped back to the pack. but even if she was fresh I doubt she could hang with the africans
This is an issue I'm noticing with the league. There needs to be more event groups if it wants to attract more athletes. There are 1500m guys that don't want to race the 800m and vice versa. There needs to be a 400/800 group, a 1500m/3000m group, etc...
Interesting when watching the 1500 M destroying the 800 guys yesterday, thinking about how the guys who have been able to double successfully in both. Thinking about Makloufi, Coe, etc. Demonstrates how tricky it is, and the type of athlete you need. Rare breed.
