It looks like Wheating entered with his time from this year while others, like Centro, entered with their qualifying time from last year.
I assume it is up to the athlete to decide which performace to enter.
This dropped him from a 3 seed to an 8 seed, which jumbled the heats a bit. Shouldn't matter in the first round.
It looks weird to see Russell Brown as the #2 seed, but he is faster than Centro and has run faster than Wheating over the last year and Lomong and Lagat are not in it.
They can enter whatever qualifying time they want. Their seed time has to be from this year.
