The meeting in Full Liévin is loaded and we'll go live 5 minutes before Keely tries to break Jolanda Ceplak's 1:55.82 which was set the day Keely was born - ...
Lights are supposed to kinda solve this for the pacers, but too many seem to freelance. My only real takeaway is that GHB is in reasonable shape and happy to frontrun from 600 out. Feels like Hiltz could beat her for sure. Haylom is highly beatable for whoever the US sends to get the third medal. Looks like F. Hailu is running the 3,000 and that is probably ESP's top competition for gold there.
Before the TV window began and before the results site broke, there was a stacked women's 3000.Oh wait, they are showing the replay right now so I won't spoil it.
Last year's world indoor champ at 3k, Freweyni Hailu, who was 6th at Worlds in the 1500 outdoors, won it .
Battocletti had her own lights for the European record but she didn't dig very deep late and missed it by .03.Antone watching on flotrack? Can you rewind it - or is it only live? On the WA site, you can't rewind.
B heat, Navasky Anderson and Kebenei went for it but couldn't hold onto a hot pace. Ended up being slow and only the winner Stepanov hit the modest World Indoor Q of 1:45.89. I'm not sure how fit Pattison truly is but he ran very conservative and didn't really give himself a chance to win. He does already have the standard so I guess that's whatever.
It was interesting that despite the new start, this one still went out crazy fast (right on 24-flat). Most of the field survived it but can't have been ideal pacing-wise especially for the guys who went wide (Moula namely).

Probable because of the novelty, as guys are still guessing how fast they have to go out to position themselves well later during merging. Indicates a lot that during WC it will boil down to who can go out fast AND die the least during the last 80m. Crestan seems to be the type.
Those who will be sensible with their pace during first 400m will be too far back in the end to contend for the win.
