Pacing for M5k
AKBACHE Mounir 1K - 2:33 min, 2K - 5:06 min
KIPKOECH Justin 3K - 7:37.2 min

Pacing for WMile
SCHOFFIELD Kristie 800m - 2:04.5 min

NANYONDO Winnie 1200m - 3:06.75

Mary Decker is still in the top 10 from 1985

Yeah I know it's not raced too often but FOURTY YEARS ?

Sure enough, super-shoes are good for a second per lap so 4:16 becomes 4:12

Now add super-tracks and maybe just under 4:10 someday soon.

One Mile - women - senior - outdoor

Open link

All somewhat possible predictions (hope weather is good).

1. Irish girl to break 49 in 400m

2. Faith WR in mile. It's softish by comparison.

3. Karsten to run 46 and maybe dos Santos too, but Karsten FTW.

4. Arop for 800m.

5. 12:40 Going down in the 5,000m with 2 men going under.

6. LET IT RIP!!!!

did SML scratch the 400? no longer on the entries

SML scratched with a knee issue.

Neils Laros (NED) runs an outstanding 1:44.76 PB to win the B-800. Training partner and last year's World Junior Champ Ermias Girma (ETH) got passed by him late but ran 1:44.86 for a nice SB. Hope he gets into Worlds, but might need to run sub-1:44.7 before Worlds.

Once again, SML not racing. Gotta love these “athletes” and their competing

1:44.78 FTW for Niels Laros.

2028 Los Angeles Olympics 1500 medalist?

Winner. Him or Reynold.

Should be a GREAT one. Does the women's mile WR fall?

Does the men's 5000 WR fall? The pacers are going for 7:37 for 3k which is 12:41 pace. Kick off that and you might have it.

And if it falls, who is most likely to get it? Kiplimo or Aregawi?

I'm saying Kiplimo.

Bro, your bro already started one of these.

Kipyegon not getting the World Record would be more surprising than anything. If she goes through in 2:07 or faster the record is done.

This is the elite posters' thread.

Warholm !! 46.52 Balls to the walls from the gun.

I see that those 3 hours sauna sessions are paying off

And Rai Benjamin.

Our intern texted me, "Do the shoe companies not care?" And I said, "Yes, they do not care. Does anyone care if Mahomes sits out week 7 but wins the Super Bowl."

Oh good. I'm in!

Did Dos Santos grab for his hammy? He finished nonetheless and might be OK. 47.6 falling apart is still pretty good. Nice run from CJ Allen to get 3rd and another sub-48.

Bad analogy. Does anyone care if Mahomes sits out everything except the post-season?

Imagine how exciting this 400 would be with SML or Mu...
