they're always been cautious about overdoing Parker's workload. if she wins the 5000 on Friday would you be surprised if she scratches the 3000 on Saturday?
and I HOPE she doesn't scratch as a Valby/Markezich duel in the 3000 will be epic.
I think there are only ~3 events Florida is expected to score big points in outside of her so i dont think they are in contention for any team prizes. Id imagine Holloway and Palmer will just walk with her on Saturday morning and see how she feels after Friday's effort.
I just don't see her losing the 5000. she'll go out hard like she always does and break the field. maybe if Lemngole and Olemomoi work together they can stay within reach and try to outkick her, but didn't they try that at last years 5000 outdoor and still get crushed?
Taylor Roe might have the best chance but even if she runs the race of her life I still think she'll finish 2nd.
Every single runner in the 3k will be doubling except Amina Maatoug. Why would she scratch? 3k/5k is a very common double indoors and she has barely raced this season. I would be extremely surprised to see her scratch the 3k.

Her being possible contender for the Olympic team makes her different from the rest.

Not different and she will double. Scratching for any reason other than sick / injured is just lame. No one scratches the 3k.
Plus Markezich is just as much a contender for the Olympics if not more. She also has the olympic standard In her event.
Ramsden is a contender for NZ, I am sure there are others on both the mens and womens side vying for the Olympics, like Nico Young.
Hopefully, whatever reason she had KT tape on at SEC’s was for something very minor. Otherwise, we don’t know if it would factor into scratching the 3000m as a precaution.

Actually Florida is #2 ranked team to Arkansas. Besides Valby they have high ranked athletes is 60h, lj, shot, and Flomena Asokol in mile/3k.
