Haven't seen much mention of Tully's victory, but personally, I was glad to see her win. Seems she's been on the verge of a big victory in several meets this year, just to have the win taken from her at the bitter end. Glad she was able to hang on for this victory. No idea how this w5000 squad will play out at Worlds, but good to see some new players going.
She looked so smooth and relaxed during the race. I'm surprised she won, but not that she made the team. She really looked the best of anyone in that lead group.
Hall was well placed the whole time and certainly ran a fine race.
Who coaches Hall?

Derek Thompson.
Weak ass tem, no finalists at worlds.
Happy for Gags as well--Tully and Cabral.
Is it her first year running the 5000m?
A long way from when she was the fifth woman on the 2009 NCAA D1 winning cross country team.
Yes, and only her second 5000 on the track.

All three in 15:07ish in a championship race. At least two should make the final. Remember Abby made the Olympic team running ten seconds slower.
I couldn't agree more. There is so much upside for this group. I think that was the best race of the meet. Honest pace with a fantastic finish.
Absolutely thrilled for Marielle. She's works extremely hard and is a class act all around.

We had it up at the top of the homepage for most of Sunday:

The fact that she got beat by Saina and Kipyego handily means little (or are you referring to her .10 loss in the 1500 to Sarah Brown as Oxy?).
Yes there's a reason the US best (Huddle, Simpson and Rowbury) don't compete the 5k at World's.I guess we'll have 4 Kenyans (including Cherono the DL champ), 3 Ethiopians, and Laura Whittle of the UK. All of whom can better the American record, and 7 of 8 probably will better the American record. No medals for the Americans. But all three have a shot at making the final. Especially Tully. I would love to see Tully, Hall and Abby D all go under 15 minutes. I hope there's some good teamwork between them.

When someone posts on the boards about not seeing mention of something, it's usually in reference to not seeing it on the boards.
The meet that really counts is Worlds.
And the relay lose where Martinez came back on her.
Best of luck at Worlds Nicole, enjoy the moment.

Sorry, but the top of your homepage was the He-said/she-said between Salazar and Goucher. I wish track results would have been at the top of your page instead of the three-paragraph quote from Goucher, which was a rehash of what she said earlier. Maybe, though, at our next national championships, right?
Dickman, sir, I commend you. I feel the same way. I came to a running website to talk about running, not to talk about doping.
And on that note, many congratulations to Nicole, Hall, and D'Agostino. Although they needed Shalane to get them there, they all ran close to 15 minutes, so I think these ladies really have a shot at going sub-15. I'd love to see that!

This website is all about doping, not running.
