Anyone know why Mead dropped out? Will he run the 5k still next week???
I was there in the stands, finish line side. Mead actually got back up after being flat on his back on the track for a long time, and resumed running. When he came by us, he threw his sunglasses down on the track in disgust, but kept jogging around the track and actually finished the race.
That was the most bizarre 10k I have ever witnessed.

Did you mean 'emaciated'?
Symmonds is kicking himself now. No doubt he figured he wasn't going to qualify so he dropped so as not to weaken his brand.
With all these dudes having epic fails in the first round, Nick totally would have made the team.
I like Nick, but in this case he was too calculating for his own good.
Nick is hurt and hasn't done anything all year long. What makes you think a 1:49 would make the team because that's all he was good for?

It is if you want to hit the light pole in centerfield. Lining the ball over the short right field fence is not that impressive.
No because uppercutting creates a hole in your swing and a good fastball will beat you.

Uppercutting gives the ball top spin and reduces distance.
