Instead of the AlSal's typical post-race workout, Rupp is just running a fartlek now and getting it out of the way.

ANOTHER COMMERCIAL BREAK...............................
read an article about using tape to increase aerodynamics with what is impregnated in the tape... will try to find it
german out at 3200m
I love how they showed EVERY SECOND of those boring 2:03 women's 800 heats, talked about each f'ing girl's entire backstory and whatnot.
then they give us like 90 seconds of the Men's 10k
Dude is brutal. Lmao.

Called this so many times. This is Lagat's race to win. Super slow, middling race. Lagat has the experience and the advantage here. It will be Lagat, Rupp and someone else.
At least Rupp is making it interesting and it's not a 9600 meter jog followed by a sprint final lap.
derrick 5 seconds back. Rupp another 64
Rupp kipchirchir and lagat have a gap on these boys 18:07 at 6400
Galen, Shadrack Kipchirchir, and Bernie have a 5 second gap on everyone!
The dude needs to retire. Just stop trying and start tearin' up the local road scene. He can crush the Turkey Trot 5k this year.

Rupp is going again. This time at 4800 meters. Not sure what the hell he is doing other than toying with these guys. He's a beast.
This time he's being chased by Kiprchirchir and Lagat. They have caught him. within 400.
Rupp ran a 63.5 but Mead and Kipchirichi have gone with it!! 15-20 meter gap to 4 man chase pack Mead, Leonard Korir, True and Jenkins.
Your olympic team will come from those 7.
If I were on the sideline for someone like Lagat or True, I would tell them to let him go, and watch everyone else. If I were on the sideline for Kipchirchir or Landry for example, I would tell them to go with the break, and push on over the top when Rupp backs back off. Good opportunity for second tier runners to ambush the others.
With Kipchirchir and Lagat in the front, the others need to worry. Even if Rupp comes back down, those two can work together to press on.
24 water stops for a 10k track but only like 6 for the marathon?

Agreed. I just wish NBC was showing it!!!
GOLD
rupp, kipchirchir and lagat 5 seconds up
True and Jenkins are struggling. As we walked to the track, Weldon saw how hot it was and said, "True is screwed." This is too hot for him for a 10k.
Yes, he won the DL meet in the heat but that was a 5k. This isa 10k and he's a big dude.
True is done!!!
Rupp, Kipchirir and Lagat have 20 -25 meters on Mead. Who had 10 meters on Korir and Jenkins and True are 15-20 behind that. It's over.
Do you think we will see even 800m of the finish? I put the over/under at 500.
glad im watching handball commercials every second broadcast live
