Let's go Solinsky and Rupp!

Solinsky and rupp in 16 and 17 place.

Of course, they came thru 1000 in 2:35

Close the thread please, they've done 500 already.

that's only 12:55 pace

The rabbit went through in 2:33 low - that's 12:45 pace. Could be a lot of carnage in the last kilometers.

They (americans) are smart not to get too trashed on the opening laps...

two just fell in front of rupp, but he is ok

yo-yo pacing.

62 from 600-1000m

60.high 1000-1400m

leaders through 2k in 5:06

5:06.6 at 2km - an even pace, but a very fast one.

that's basically two 2:33 Ks. But it's been erratic pacing.

why isn't t. bekele running

who are the white guys off the back besides Rupp and Solinsky.

Solinsky is running smart on the rail.

Solinsky in 8th right in contention. He stayed off the surging.

Dammit a 64s lap!

2600m rupp back of the lead back
