Yep, she could do either or both the 5k and 10k
That did not look good for Karissa. The two Canadians and Hull just ran away from her the last lap.

Yeah looks like they need time to adjust to sea level, especially Schweitzer
molly seidel with the awkward "mmhmm"'s during uncomfortable silences
And the 10,000.
Fisher is making both teams for sure

Yeah but overall she’s doing a really good job. She doesn’t “try too hard”- she has a good demeanor and tone, and does contribute good insights. For a person new to this, she is very good.

are you trying to virtue signal or something?
Why the hell did they have two heats for the 5000? There could have been more standards run and some overall faster times at the top.
I’ll be interested to see how the trials land for the BTC women. Infeld, Hall, Jorgensen, Fraser, and Johnson have all had recent poor showings. Houlihan couldn’t race tonight and Schweizer didn’t have her best night either. I’m sure most of the crew will pull through at trials but I feel like I would have less confidence going in if my last race before trials didn’t go great.

That was impressive from Fisher.
Running wide around people on the last lap and still closed in 56. Looked like 1:56/1:57 last 800 m

I’m not sure what that means except it is something “ conservatives” say when they don’t know what else to attack.
To answer your question, no; I am replying to a weak criticism against somebody that is better than most of the people who attempt livestream commentary, and I’m sharing my opinion on a message board. It’s ok if you think that’s a bad thing, I don’t regret it.
personally i kind of like the main commentator guy. maybe it's because i also have a tendency to latch on to certain words or phrases (memes if you will) and repeat them until my wife begs me to stop lol. electric forest baby!
that said, willis was a nice change of pace. dude is like an encyclopedia of various training groups and their locations/coaches/etc. would be cool to see more of him.
for six bucks it was absolutely worth it. i much prefer this pay-per-view model where you get to see the whole meet. f*** subscriptions and selective NBC coverage, i say.

I've no complaints either. Rather hear this type of loosey goosey banter than Tim Hutchings anyday.
Correction, 55 second last lap.
This kind of dominant performance bodes well for Fisher as the trials and Olympics could be similar tactics and fast finish.
The whole production was outstanding.
So much better than the corporate TV types.
I liked all the analyst as they created a nice vibe.
Would have loved to have been in person.
Felt like smoking a bowl with them.
Bet you’re surprised then...
