Ryan Hill! I was worried about him since he was last for most of PRE and eventually was a DNF.

The chase pack were all racing for 2nd and 3rd and a ticket to the worlds. Jenkins looked good.

Glad I stayed up for that

Pretty good result for Lomong. Best I can remember in years

And no one in the stands.
Our Sport is on its Death Bed.

No one is giving True any credit. He's basically running solo himself as no one else has ben helping. Hill is just riding those guys. I'm worried Hill is going to outkick True. Jenkins should be a lock.

WOW! I thought she was gonna make the team for sure, but Houlihan absolutely DESTROYED Huddle in the last 100. That was a devastating kick. I thought Rowbury was gonna take this with a lap to go, but she still looked great, especially with a 1500 round in her legs.

---

You do realize that Huddle ran 10,000 meters yesterday and it is hot as hell out there?

She settled for third and didnt go with the kickers...she got out in front early so that she could finish third. .....

---

No I had nooooo idea... Huddle wasn't gonna win that race either way. And don't tell me she let up because she clearly tried to win that race (unless you didn't watch it).

Does Paul Chelimo have the biggest balls of any distance runner in the world? Can someone confirm????

Since I know NBC is on commercial. Chelimo is still ripping it. He's about 633 at 2100 . So it looks like he's be about 737-8 at halfway.

True and Jenkins chasing with Lopez.

Tough break for Ben True. I couldn't decide who to root for between him and Hill

Can we all appreciate how fast Chelimo just SOLO'd a CHAMPIONSHIP race in the Sacramento heat?!

Paul Chelimo is a bad man. Very brave and confident run. Witness the fitness.
