Was heading for 8:16ish - Ouch!

WTF was he thinking there? did he forget that that was the water barrier?
That sucked. I was wanting to see what time he could throw down.
But the main goal was still accomplished. He got the A standard.
Probably shouldn't have tried to hurdle that bad boy. Awesome splash down.
I cracked and feld bad at the same time
So he just tried to pull the Kenyan hurdle of the water barrier? Hahaha. I couldn't tell what he did cuz my feed is choppy
At least he was laughing at the end so that is good.
WTF....runnerspace stream is down?
He also learned that anything can happen in the steeple and that it must be respected!
I guess I looked away for a split second and didn't see him go down. Can't wait until the Flotrack guys have instant replay.
My runnerspace feed went down, so I opened flotrack's. Runnerspace started back up and was lagging so I saw it on flotrack then switched to see it again.
Jager was trying to go with the classic Kenyan move of hurdling the last water barrier... He probably won't do that again.
He looked ready to take off all race, he'll for sure be sub 8:10 this year
He's running 8.10 this year
Takes a 63sec pace to hurdle the pit... speed up next time jager
He pulled a Garcia...
well...not in that sort of way you dirty minded people.
Jager had a lot of issues since 2008 or what? Where's he been and what has he been up to? Nothing since then and now in an Olympic year he pops up and runs the steeple.
OK. Also I don't like his hair and he seems kinda like a hippy. So I don't feel sorry for him at all plowing the last hurdle and face planting into the water.

He was running at least 63s pace, probably faster. He hit a 65 last lap including the fall.
Jager went through with 400 to go at 7:17...makes it a 63 second last lap with the fall. Easily would have been 58 seconds without the fall
he almost tripped on the end of the pit on a previous lap and that's where he came down on the last lap. he looked very easy the whole way through and was still able to break 8:21 with the fall (A standard 8:23). Cabral looked very impressive as well. That was a double digit pr for Cabral and he ran 8:19 for the win over Huling, himself an 8:14 runner. Cabral can run 8:14 this year and Jager would not surprise me at all to challenge for 8:08 AR.
What the hell does this
