Bartlesmeyer first to not get Q
and there’s the downside of not having time qualifiers. Tempo pace for them through 800. Makes for excitement tho
2nd M 1500 heat super slow, smart for the better racers after that first fast heat.
These finishes are crazy.
Centro would’ve love this.

2:12 at 800 meters
Talk about two completely diffrent races. Cheruiyot lucky to make it through. Waskom not so much. Problem with races that slow is anyone can make it through
Waskom out
Waskom got on the rail immediately and never got out of the box. Looked like he had a lot of run in him but just made a tactical mistake early on he couldn't get out of
Rough day tactically for waskom
This is why doing automatic qualifiers is stupid. What a boring slow race. There is no incentive for them to run fast. Everyone in that heat that just went with the pack and didn't qualify is an idiot. They could have run 3:35 in their sleep. Just a bunch of betas.

Yeah waskom looked like he had some left but there was basically a wall of 6 people and he couldn’t get through. Position is critical in 3:45-3:50 type races.
H2 was glorious. First eight within half a second.

Acting like there isnt slow heats every year. And the heat before was won in 3:33.
Riding Cheruiyot's coattails into round 2 only works if he doesn't finish 6th. 😬
Wascom got stuck on the rail
Holy shyte this coverage sucks. Glad I can watch but we have to get better announcers. How much are they gonna talk about waspcum? 7th place! No one cares, bro!
And that is why the top guys don't go to the rail until they want to lead. Hocker should take notes.
Waskom had plenty left but couldn't get out of a box that last 150. tried to move twice to reposition but it was too late
