the announcer just mentioned rupp is going for the record. either he reads LR or rupp is really going for it.

In case you are wondering. 62.40 gets you 13:00.
Thank you.
Rojo, be careful you sound a bit biased against NOP. Not that I totally disagree with you

I disagree with so much of your stuff. Simpson is trying to be one of the best of world. Rowbury is trying to beat simpson. It reminds me of the inter-team battles you often see.
I usually disagree with rojo (especially his obvious intolerant right-wing leanings) but he's right here. And Simpson did kick Rowbury's ass at 3k.
In a national meet Simpson would probably fare better.
12:58 is apparently the pace target so I'm doubting an AR. But Rupp does seem to be up there.
That was nearly 2 minutes on one javelin throw. Unbelievable. Nobody cares about watching that guy walk around.
Did that guy ever bet me the $1000. I knew Rupp would go with the pace. If you understand the sport, like I do, you knew that would be the case.
Any updates?
Laalou getting owned.
could be a very good race
Too slow for 12:53 right now
How can you pretend to know Rowbury's motives in a race.
I'm sure she is trying to place as high as she possibly can which means beating as many runners that are in front of her.
The only two people that came in before Rowbury were on a pace that she was obviously not comfortable with.
You say Simpson is trying to be one of the best in the world and you don't think that this is what Rowbury is trying to be?
No, in your mind you think Rowbury's only objective is to beat Simpson.
Come on now.
Why don't you stop being so biased. It's so painfully obvious.

It's hard to believe that Simpson was once the World champ and Rowbury has medalled. If I'm simpson, I get my ass into the steeple. Beating Ghiribi may be hard but everything else is possible.
You say that, but he ran 3:57 this year which is pretty good.
where is everybody at? what is the pace?
Hate to see Derrick hanging on the back like that.
Rupp looking great!

i think simpson is a better runner generally, and i certainly root for her more, but rowbury is a better 1500m runner hands down in 2015.
there's no disputing this.
In 2015 Simpson has won 2 DL 1500s and USTAF. Remind me again which races Rowbury has won...

Yeah come on BroJos. Stop picking your noses and post updates for us please!

Roughly 13 flat pace at 2K. Kenyans and Rupp and Kejelcha/Gebrhi/Iguider after. Then True
What is so wrong with Rowbury tucking behind Simpson? Simpson is always in the thick of things, and it has served Rowbury well. If it aint broke, don't fix it!
