Teg and Ritz both get PRs -- 13:03 and 13:12 respectively.
Liu Xiang is a stud, but it's kind of annoying how he preens for the camera after every race.
He wasn't preening after Paris, thats for sure.

Good deal. Adjust time predictions accordingly.
Ritz 4th in 13:20's low, Teg 5th 13:20's high
Though it's not a lot of elevation, it does put a little pressure on the lungs at 100% effort doesn't it? And couldn't that benefit Ritz more than the others as he has trained at altitude for most of the past half decade?
I really don't think that it will make a huge difference but maybe a smidgin'.
I think Ritz may be relieved to have some pressure and spotlight off him. I look for a strong race from him to stalk Teg.
Teg: 12:58
Ritz: 13:03
Riley: 13:13
I think Riley is due for a PR as long as he doesn't go too quick too soon. Remember he is training with Teg and Solinsky now and I think he is very confident and very fit for himself.
I do think he's better than Hall and Dobson were when they ran there 13:15's.

Sorry Zat, you didn't tell me so. Ritz may have beat Teg, but it's not as if he ran great to do it. I'll eat my words, with Teg losing to him, but this surely isn't the result anyone predicted.

Didja not see the little smiley winky thing in my last post?
Well, he was the only guy saying times wouldn't be great when everyone else was predicting low and sub 13 times.

ZatOpek is also the one who was disagreeing with wyco loco's statements to the effect that Ritz had no chance to beat Teg.
Damn I was only 2 seconds off on Ritz's time. Oh well maybe next time fellas. Whats next for Teg, Ritz, and Riley?
