13:16 bell, so no record but still fast again.

69 with 3 to go.
12:06.5 with 2 to go. (70 second lap).
She may not break 14:20 now.
14:21. Still fast, especially given that the entire meet seems to be pretty slow.
Be interesting to see how Souleiman goes if they go after the allegedly requested 3:44 pace
Genzebe is a beast, excellent run (and so pretty).

69.65 and 65.00 the last 2 laps for 14:21.29
7th fastest 5k in history (8th if you count her indoor WR)
Uceny DNS. Any idea why?
She tripped down the stairs walking down to the track.
Barshim and Kynard fail at 2.36, as does the Italian jumper though he got the consolation of a national record (2.33).
Zhang makes 2.36. Bondarenko gambles and passes all the way to 2.38 but fails.
Zhang going for NR 2.40.
Loving it
Quite a scrum for those last two spots: Brown, Efraimson, Mackey, Grunewald, Kampf (not counting Garcia and Coburn who have 4:05 also)

Grunewald 4:04, Kampf 4:05 now have their WC qualifiers.
Legit contenders now for the 3rd & 4th WC 1500 spots after Simpson & Rowbury.
Zhang fails at 2.40 but wins the meet with his 2.36. He is second in the diamond race 7 points to Barshim's 9 (with a three way tie for third at two points apiece)
55.8 for 409
Pacers out in 55.4 with soulman right on them
1:53.5 at 809. Souleiman has gap on everyone else of about 10m
The meet organizers should have allowed Ayana to compete, she would have work with Dibaba to lower that record. Instead they rejected her request, pointing that she would change the dynamics of the race into a tactical one.
2:53 at bell, so just 60 penultimate lap
Kiprop wins in 3:51.45.
Kiprop wins in 3:51.xx
Souleiman faded pretty bad. Seems like it was not a night to run fast at all. Times slow across all races, high jump won in 2.36, etc.
Looks like Kiprop got some of that NOPe dope. Was rooting for Soul Man. What a shame.

Yeah, he needs so much dope to run 3:51...
