some really interesting entries in there. How is Engles going to look in an 800. Colleen Quigley in a 1500. Elise Cranny is listed in both the 1500 and 5k. Is she pacing?
the mens 5k is really interesting. Woody Kincaid, Abdi Nur, Emmanuel Bor, Aaron Bienenfeld, Neil Gourley in a 5k.
Beamish with another crack at the steeplechase
The Women's 100 is absolutely loaded
Teare gets to test himself with Cheruiyot in the mile and we get to see where Drew Hunter, Centro and Hobbs Kessler are with their fitness right now
Women's 1500 is interesting, Josette Andrews gets to test herself against someone like Welteji while she knows she's in good shape
Interesting that they switched the mens 1,500 to a mile. Also Hocker is no longer listed for it, does anyone know what is up? And would it kill pro runners to release an update every now and again? Why do these brands pay athletes to race twice a year and be hermits?

It’s a break for both Teare and Reynold Cheruiyot you’d think. Strongest 5K guys in the field. The 5k looks nice with Woody, Nur, Yihune, Beadlescomb, Gourley. Probably will be a 13:05-13:10 race but the racing should be good. Cranny is listed in both 15 and 5. Quigley made a big deal on social of choosing the 1500 over 5, but is now in the 5 go figure. Andrews vs Welteji should be a good one in the 15.
Rai Benjamin out of the meet. No Knighton either I thought he was listed. Wightman is out of the meet too.

Quigley is entered in the 1500 B race as well. I didn't even catch her in the 5k initially after seeing her in the 1500. Maybe the social posts indicate she'll end up only doing the 1500,

She signed up for both, asked the internet which she should do, the internet picked the 5K, she said Nah, I'll do the 15, making the entire thing utterly pointless.

Interesting that I spoke to Ron Warhurst just last night and he did not mention change from 15 to mile. With many needing Q's and I know they can get en routes? I am still surprised they would switch it. Also no idea where they get Kessler mile PR from lol.

3:51.00 is the Q standard that can be achieved in the mile.
Glad to see Whittni Morgan competing in the 1500m, but I wonder when we will see her race the 5k? I assumed she was going for the standard at Track fest, but ended up pacing. Is she just going to focus on the 1500m this year?
I get that, but it really seems pointless, run the 15, why bother with a mile? Makes almost, almost I said..lol..sense
It seems like Nike/Capriotti (consultant) are basically making this a mini Pre Classic with that meet serving as the DL Final. So this is maybe a homage to the Bowerman mile?Getting the Cheruiyots instead of it just being a domestic affair indicates they're using some pull with their pros.
