Umm, actually, I was reminded of the men's world record when El G and Ngeny went out hard like Dibaba and Price today. Ngeny finished of course, but I always loved how hard they went as two explorers into new territory. Dibaba/Price had that sort of commitment in their running today.

It goes without saying, but I've never seen a runner dominate a race like Dibaba did this one. El Guerrouj never did that.
Agreed that I loved seeing El G going for it. No one on this board seems to like him much, but he was stunning. And Ngeny was always gutsy as hell for going with him several times. Kinda like Hassan tonight, but much closer to the lead.
