wow, yeah seriously, they went:
3:00 1k
6:02 2k (still manageable)
9:08 3k (needed to notch it down if they still wanted sub 15:10m
Ethiopian threw in 2 77 second laps to follow the 3k, NOP girls didnt do anything to push it
and if Hasay wouldnt have pushed it they wouldve been lucky to even break 15:30
but hey, considering the heat, they were bound to positive split this race and they gave a hard effort
i think we should see great times from these girls come PRE!
Rowbury is such a sweetie.

Hasay gets killed the last lap of every race. Happy she PR'd but it's hard to be competitive when she can't hang from the bell.
Must to tough to kick with the big ladies with only a 2:08 800m PR to your name. Hopefully she can undergo a Rupp-like transformation in the kick department.
Hmmm wonder if we'll see DNF #3 in the Rupp vs. Willis rivalry
Rupp playing a cool negative, looking to really rip things up on the last lap. Also, is it just me or is Levins doubling up and using the 5 as a workout?
Really, they needed a pacer to run 1k? And he couldn't even run the 2:36 he was supposed to run, but ended up in 2:42 and stepped off? Geez
I could have paced...
Rupp just wants to stalk Willis... the one guy he really doesn't want to lose to
We got a good ol' fashioned jog fest going on.
Hobby joggers, WTF!
I know what will Willis have for dinner after the race.
And he just lost to someone he should never be losing to.

wow Rupp got burned at the end there
Sit and kick, EPIC fail!
Most Galen Rupp race ever!
Rupp 13:19, barely beat Willis.
Swings his arms way too hard, which is why he runs out of gas on the kick.
LOL Rupp looking for Willis.

I think Rupp let up the last 150m personally. Did anyone see the contact between Birmingham/Osako?

Please, don't start with the Rupp-certified excuses.
Collis seemed... less excited about beating Rupp than I would have thought. Rupp is a huge deal, only Bernie in the US beats him at 3k+. Does he realize how big a deal it is?
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
