Duane should have gone for silver

The run by Kszczsot impressed me even more

Tough one for Duane. He went for gold and ended up with bronze.

I've never been in that situation but he got carried away. The Kenyan guy cratered but Duane wasn't going to make up 4 seconds.

Interesting race for sure.

And yet he made up like 3.7 of those seconds. It was a fine decision.

OP owned.

"Should have gone for silver." This is why the US is becoming such a country of weaklings.

Completely disagree with the OP. Why are you racing if you aren't going for gold? Who races for silver? That's quite possibly one of the dumbest comments. Are you a noob to competitive running? Good grief. The man dropped a 1:45, which was still faster than everyone else, and he made up a good chunk of time. I'm very perplexed by that statement though. If your goal isn't to win then you should join the jogger community because competitive running isn't for you.

We’re from the US and we never race for second.
