I called Jon Gault about this and he's like, "but he might not finish." True. But I also thought he could really crater and still win it- might 61-66 be enough to win it?
Now it looks like the chase back didn't go out stupidly slow so he probably can't crater majorly.
last 30 minutes of this should be very interesting - to see if someone puts a charge on from behind in the heat. Have to keep an eye on the leaderboards.
They are about to go from a 7 mph tailwind to a 7 mph headwind....that could break this up pretty quick and give the laggards an opportunity.

What?
They literally praised Rupp at length for being a father of four and still running at a high level.
But don't let actual facts get in the way of a good argument, right?
