That's a nice stadium. Better than any US track.
Asbel Kiprop wins the 1500m easily sprinting away from the field in the home stretch and having time to salute the crowd 10m off. Silas Kiplagat and Elijah Manangoi second and third.
Congratulations to former Iowa State Cyclone Betsy Saina for making the Kenyan 10K team...she finished 2nd one second behind Vivian Cheruiyot. Just a few years ago Saina was around 140th at the NCAA XC Finals.
That stadium is very empty for a World Trials meet.
STEEPLECHASE ON NOW
"They have dees American guy, hes very tough.."
The Kenyans are taking Jager very seriously.
Jarius Birech, Conselus Kipruto, Brimin Kipruto and Ezekiel Kemboi finish in that order. Kemboi seemed over the moon with his performance.
Eunice Sum easily wins the women's 800m over Janeth Jepkosgei.
Ferguson Rotich beats David Rudisha. Billy Konchellah says Rudisha told him he's still over a a kilo overweight.
1.43.6 for Rotich, didn't catch Rudisha's time.
What happened in the 5000, the commentator couldn't make up his mind who was who. It looked to me like Ndiku didn't make it.
Ndiku can run Beijing as he won the Diamond league last year.
Team being named.

ok... but what was the result? Soi, Kiplangat, ?, I thought.
The clowns at AK have only named 3 (Kiprop, Kiplagat, Manangoi) for the men's 1500m. Don't they realise Asbel is defending champ and Kwemoi should be in the team?
Woohoo! Isaiah Kiplagat steps down as president of AK. Don't let the door hit you ....
