He's got to address the media beforehand, right? Otherwise this meet is going to be a circus. Same goes for AlSal.
I say he runs 3:35.xx.

Rupp will give it his 'all': 3:29.x. He might as well go for broke at this point, because the future doesn't look so hot. Rupp will not talk to anyone about anything. Salazar will protect him from the naughty questioners.
He's also entered in the 10,000m, as is NOP teammate Suguru Osako. Cam Levins is in the 5000, Hasay is in the 5000, Rowbury in the 800. Maybe they will all have a joint press conference?
3:36.19
Rupp vs. Magness's golden child Tommy Schmitz in the 1500, that will be a barnburner for sure. Haha.
Why is Rupp running the 10k?
Maybe Rupp is running the 10k because he may not run another for a long time. Or, it's the usual Salazar nonsense of figuring which event Rupp's post-race testing will stay the furthest under the testing bar..

I mean, he'll almost definitely be running the 10k at USAs.
Or maybe he's just pacing Osako
Rupp has a Worlds Q in the 10ooo but not in the 15oo he needs 3:36.20 or better. He also lacks a Worlds Q in the 5ooo.
Hey at least he's running (at the moment). We can't say the same for Farah.

This is false.
3:38 and doesn't talk to anyone
Surprised no one had said DNS.
We will see full participation of the NOP this weekend? Other than Mo.
3:39 and he will not congratulate anyone after the race (AlSal's instruction to avoid someone sabotaging by sneakily rubbing steroid cream on his arm.
Rupp is pacing Osako, who ran like dirt at Pre.
I'm not sure why they would even have a 10,000 here.
No one running USATF in a couple weeks would run a 10 now, except for a last meet qualifying chance, I guess.
If there is a 10,000 I could see Rupp pacing it for a workout.
The 1500 is a tuneup in a small meet.
I don't see Rupp needing to address anything to line up for this.
3:37.01

Are you going to cover the event? We need someone there asking the right questions.
3:34:17 and he only talks to the letsrun interviewer
