Is that the same Ronald Kwemoi in the 10k and 1500? No 5k for Kwemoi?!

Lol at the 100/200 seed times. Nice to know the US can beat Kenya in something. Looks like one guy has the 200m standard at least.

Yep, the same one. Baffling, to say the least. Notice there's Rodgers Kwemoi on the same 10K list do it can't be a typo. Even Kenyan athlete/journalist Justin Lagat tweeted about it a couple of days back. What's it all about?

Women's 10000m Results:

1. Agnes Tirop - 31:56.

2. Irene Cheptai - 31:56

3. Alice Aprot - 32:16

4. Veronica Nyaruai - 32:34

5. Doricah Kerubo - 33:04

6. Mary Wananu - 33:08

7. Emily Chepkurui - 33:30

Cyrus Rutto drops a 55 second last lap to win the men's 5000m in 13:31. Davis Kiplangat second and Geoffrey Koech third. Caleb Ndiku DNS.

800 heats coming up ?? they could be interesting. Hope someone can post those results

El Keniano, you really got to give us a link.

What is Renato up to? Ronald running 10000m points at 5000m /10000m in the World champs......It really seems that Renato decided to skip the 1500m.

Maybe Renato will give us a hint here?

Sorry. Can't find a working link for you guys.

Ferguson Rotich and Kipyegon Bett won the two 800m semis. Can't tell if A.Kipketer and E.Korir advanced as there was such a scram of bodies at the line. And Geoffrey Koech, third in the 5K, has been DQed for lane violation.
