BYU Lexy Halladay: 5000M PR = 14:57 and BYU Riley Chamberlain 3000M PR = 8:40 are in the same top tier heat for the 5000M. Jane’s brother runs for BYU, her father teaches at BYU and she has already committed to attend BYU. Thoughts on whether BYU coach Diljeet Taylor is coordinating with all three on race strategy for the 5000M?? I’d bet money on it. This, it being outdoor, and not on a 200M track should help Hedengren improve on her 15:13 5000M PR at Bryan Clay.

...but she will be yelling out splits and instructions.

there seems to be a group of runners who could be on pace to run 15:15-20 and those would be the ones to run with. Kosgei, Olemomoi, LHL and maybe Nichol and Kennedy might be off running 15:00 pace which is probably too fast for the rest of the runners.

If she runs 15:15-20 pace she won’t improve her record by much. It’s possible she could take 10 seconds off of her record so a pace of close to 15:00 sounds reasonable.

don't we often see big times from those who can finish strong off a slightly "slow" pace? If she could coast through 3000 behind someone(s) running 15:15 pace that might be ideal.

Maybe, but all of Hendengren’s big races have been hard, even pacing and just about every record, at every level, comes off an even pace. There’s nothing to win in this race so her focus will be 100% on time.

Plan A, Break 15:10.

Plan B, PR Break 15:13.

1. Plan A, Objective #1: Run 8 laps at 73.x sec/lap and be reasonably comfortable at 8 laps. If not reasonably comfortable finishing first 8 laps in 9:45-9:47 (i.e., 73.x sec/lap) then throw a sub 15:10 (Plan A) out the window, and try and PR (Plan B.)

2. Plan A, Objective #2: Run lap 9, 10 and 11 at 72sec/lap (i.e., ratchet it up a notch).

3. Plan A, Objective #3: Run lap 12 at 71sec/lap (go hard and pour it out).

4. Plan A, Objective #4: Run last 200m in 35.5sec (or less, pouring it all out).

A plan to fail.

It might have been a race of a lifetime for Rylee Blade, but I believe Hendengren is more than 3.5 seconds faster than her and 15:00 is not out of the question. Plan B would be a bit of a disappointment.

"Continue running [goal] pace! You got this ladies!"

I'm sure it'll help a lot
