I didn't read any thread(s) about the lack of prep races before this 10k. Especially this being C19 era haven't heard any TT, road 5ks.
Mo has always had a sustained rpm most notable to all his Olympics prep is his multiple 3:29 1500s.
So far he's had marathoning with last track race Years ago, a reality show that's isolated and no proper training, no prep track races, and supposed ankle problem? In the name of sport this just tells us he's not there but then to run 27:50 with these preparations lacking I would say he's solid. Getting a standard and competing at Olympics at this level shouldn't have merit without tune up races at shorter races.
Didn't Sifan just PB @800 before this 10kWR?
