Immediately goes off the track after the 10k...get pissed
Editor's note: We've merged 3 threads on this issue. After the race Jenkins indicated there was talk of finishing together before the race but that didn't happen. He said he didn't consider this one a loss and admitted their is a rivalry between them. It sounds like the gloves will come off for the 5000m final. Video interviews below
Did anyone else see Jenkins walking off the track? He seemed pissed that Ches outkicked him again. I also don't see the point of it, he should have just let Jenkins win.
Shakes head at line after Ches goes for the love tap, storms off the track without a word to anyone.. Ouch!!
He might have been pissed with the indoor quote that Cheserek let him win.
Sore loser...typical east coast preppie type.
Ches couldn't give up another title I suppose. Too much of a reputation...
Had to go under the stands to adjust his rupp certified "artificial clean sample apparatus".
Senior year, I thought it was my time

Jenkins didn't even try... don't give up before the race ends? I would have won that sprint.
just happy to be in the race boyz, couldn't see the finish with being lapped, what happened?
Jenkins is one of the most overrated runners of all-time. Ches can't lose to someone that bad.
Probably needed to dope up quick before the 5k
Ummmm, letting someone just win a race has got to be against NCAA regulations.
Kinda unnecessary kick by Ches when they already had 1-2 locked down. Should have at least chilled a little. Jenkins gets revenge in the 5k? #lettheangerrunthroufgyourveins
You did a great job of pacing Ches! I could see you pacing galen in the future with Cam!
As a very qualified runner once said: "...Or we can blaze! Become legends in our own time, strike fear in the heart of mediocre talent everywhere! We can scald dogs, put records out of reach! Make the stands gasp as we blow into an unearthly kick from three hundred yards out! We can become God's own messengers delivering the dreaded scrolls! We can race dark Satan himself till he wheezes fiery cinders down the back straightaway....They'll speak our names in hushed tones, 'those guys are animals' they'll say! We can lay it on the line, bust a gut, show them a clean pair of heels. We can sprint the turn on a spring breeze and feel the winter leave our feet! We can, by God, let our demons loose and just wail on!"
