USATF 15 K - Emily Sisson DOMINATES, Galen Rupp only 7th!!

Nico Montanez busted it open on the bridge at about 38 minutes.

Sisson 47:28 I believe - ahead by something like 90 seconds

43:30 for Montanez, Rupp finished 7th.

* 43:10 - misread screen

Wow, that's a great time for both Sisson and Montanez! I think 42:22 remains the CR by Todd Williams, but running close to 43-flat is solid on that course. And for Sisson, geez, she's great. I ran 48:08 on that course back in my day when pretty fit!!! Amazing.

This is what a clean Galen Rupp looks like. No record breaker here. 42:31 which is barely sub 60 pace for a half marathon except he was only able to go 9.3 miles at sun 60 half marathon pace. Still a solid effort.

Where are you getting the results? They are not on the race website yet.

43:31 to out lean Zach Panning (also 43:31) at the line.

Emily 1 through 3

I signed up for Runnerspace+ to watch that race. The womens footage looked like it was filmed from an iPhone on the back of a golf cart. The mens footage was better.

I thought Galen had it 2/3 of the way through. I could tell he looked bad about halfway through mile 7. Sisson just destroyed the field. Nice easy payday for her.

Galen is 35 y.o. and will be 36 in two months. His best days are behind him. Surely, if he stoped using some or all of the PEDs then the decline curve will get even steeper.

Sisson said she won't run the 10.000m champs this year (so she's not aiming for Worlds). Says she wants to focus on the roads this year. Interesting!

Nothing at all is surprising about the results of the big names in those lists. Except it's kinda cool that the name Emily went 1-2-3.

I think the only faster Americans than Sisson in history at this distance are Flanagan (AR 47:00) and Kastor. Huddle ran 47:29 once.

This is what an old Rupp who has spent too much time off due to injuries looks like.
