John Kellogg has run this though the conversion matrix and this performance roughly equates to a "SMOKE DEM BITCHES" in Boston.
First time Hasay has been lapped in an outdoor race? That would be weird - a child prodigy getting lapped after lapping countless other girls along the way.
Well, it's the first time she's been in a track that long.
Hasay, Goethals, and Bergman did way better than I thought they would.
Amazing that Hasay is 10 years younger than Flanagan and 13 years younger than Goucher.
That what you call a coaching breakdown mistake. Coach should have been calculating last mile as race was progressing , urging her over the last two laps to what she had run to get the time , screaming over the last lap to help her get there. Didn't happen.
"Hasay, Goethals, and Bergman did way better than I thought they would. "
And Bergman kicked a lap early. She "finished" near Goucher, then realized that she had another lap left.

So, the Stanford track is longer than 400 meters?

over 90 seconds slower than the WR. Imagine a guy would run 27:50, you still say "wowww"/"DAMN"?
Except for the women's 10k record is the most bullshit record on the books. Shalane is also in the middle of marathon training. This performance only backs up my idea that Shalane should be a 10k runner not a marathoner. She is an Olympic medalist in the 10k and has shown no where near that level in the marathon.
Not necessarily, but imagine if, say, Ritz ran 27:50-28 minutes as a tune up two weeks before a marathon, cruising by himself. Still 90 seconds off the world record, and about 40 seconds off his PR, just like Shalane, but a very solid tune up off of marathon training, assuming the training has been marathon focused.
I get the impression it was a somewhat controlled effort, and indicative that Shalane is ready for a very solid marathon.

Paula could have easily broke that record in her 2003 shape. The 10,000 WR is not an outlier.

Give Jordan another year or so, and the next time she meets Shalane in a race on the track, Jordan will rebound from being lapped to come back to win. As long as the race is, of course, a marathon.
Not even then.
no, surely the women's 3000m record is by far the craziest out there
Not even a PR.
