Rowbury in the 1500 now vs. Muir and Weightman
Muir FTW, now everyone waits anxiously to see if Weightman dipped under 4.
Muir was 3:57.4 WL. So close- Weightman at 4:00.09 and Hull takes the Aussie Record in 4:00.42 for 3rd, Melissa Courtney 4th, and Rowbury with a season best at 4:02 in 5th.
Live Results:
Looks like Mondo is going for a 6.15 after winning in 5.91 over Lisek.
Tried to out wait the breeze, but Mondo's first attempt ended poorly. 400h next. Will Warholm get his record?
Warholm taking lane 7 instead of his usual 8. New strategy?
47.08 and much smoother than last race for Warholm. Kendziera 3rd in 50.28.
2nd attempt for Duplantis...still breezy...runs up but pulls up short.
Not to be for Mondo today; just too windy. M and W 100m are left to close out the track events.
Why doesn't Rowbury get the love she deserves? She is having a great season. She's getting close to Regina Jacob's USA W35 record in the 1500, and I think she broke her W35 5000 record in Monaco? Are there going to be three women faster than Rowbury in the 5000 at the trials next year?
Thanks to whichever mod edited my title with results, since no one else on the Letsrun team could be arsed to do any actual coverage of the meet. Way to continue 'helping' the sport, guys.

Why not? Maybe because she was coached by the infamous, now banned drug cheat coach Salazar?
In any case, interesting comparison with Regina Jacobs.

Salazar has not been Rowbury’s coach for several years now
Jacobs is a convicted drug cheat, Rowbury is not
Why so bitter casual observer? What is your agenda for Making unsubstantiated comments against this athlete?
So much bitterness. Rowbury is as clean as any of the other competitors racing today. All the more impressive that she is closing in on RJ's times as a soon to be 36 year old mom.
Thank you WSB. Voice of reason. Sick of the haters on this site. Anybody with proof that Rowbury is a cheat, feel free to provide it and get her banned. Just the usual juvenile nonsense.
Decent meet overall. I love Muir's grit. I would love to see her, Kipyegon and Hassan over 1500m this year.
Duplantis notching up another win, but this was the closest he's been to a loss this season. I wish he kept the 6m streak going but that's okay. I don't see an outdoor WR for him this year, but he has no peers right now anyway. Next year he gets it.
I don't think Warholm gets the WR this year, but his last 2 seasons have still been nothing short of epic. The real fun begins next year though when his competition returns.
Ta Lou looks awful, why such a huge drop off in form over the space of a year? Feels weird seeing Schippers win a race, but not surprising when you see the entrants. She has still gotten slower consistently every year since 2015, a real shame.
I got dibs on Warholm running 46.79 in Rome.

I am not bitter. I made zero unsubstantiated comments against her.
It is a fact that she was coached by that cheat; I didn't accuse her of anything else.
Why do you pretend I am bitter and made unsubstantiated comments?
