19 and 17 year old (correct ages for these two athletes) 5000m runners beat both Gruber and Lunn (1500m specialists)?
VIPAM
Mulugeta Weondimu
Isn't the A standard 3:39? If so Gruber did make it.
Doh, sorry that's the trials A standard. I guess Gruber can run the trials again.
Sorry
Disappointing. I'm guessing he'll run again within the next week or so?
A Standard 1500m is not 3:39, it is 3:36.8!
Idiots
i imagine you're not an "idiot" who doesn't bother to read the whole thread...
Looks like Lunn had another problem with his shoe. He should really get that taken care of.
Actually, it is 3:36.20 all knowing one!
Earlier this year there were two threads on Lunn's 3:38.83 which was .03 off the standard, so such mistakes are stupid and obsolete for this site. Your mother should have taught you to think before speaking, moron!
Idiots across the board!
actually, "idiots" the A standard is 3:36.2 not 3:36.8.

But what does 3:38.8 have to do with 3:36.8 (besides both being wrong)?
Have to admit here that the

Yeah when you consider that the A 1500m was run in 3:35!!!
Mulugeta Wendemu is not in the Ethiopian 5k olympic team. I hope they put him in the 1500. I think he has more chance in the 1500 than Alemu in the 800.
Lunn reportedly had a tremendous kick. He was quoted after the race as saying: "These guys have shown that they can run well in a fast race. They can run well in a 1500. None of them can beat me in the 100."

He had no kick and would never say anything that stupid.
Crawl back in your hole.
If this Mulugeta can run 3.32, im absolute sure Bekele can run 3.24, totally different leauges. Distance guys are better at 1500 than true specialists.
