Any update on whether there was a timely protest on the Quigley DQ? Rojo said that it wasn't too late but that's not how I read the rules. Any clarification would be helpful.

Yeah, this one is quite loaded. Feel bad for the girl leading...
Also, why would Muir, Rowbury, etc. want to be ahead of Ayana this early on?

If Dibbaba is indeed out, 2nd heat is the easier one to qualify from, esp. knowing what you need for a small q.

Laura muir just got 7th with a 14:59, that 2nd heat has a very tall order

The first heat was more stacked to begin with

Has it ever taken sub 15 just to qualify for a W5k final before?

Ayana cannot mess with obiri's strength or flat 400m speed. Ayana will have to go out fast and try to use her 10000m tactic. But it is going to be just like rio

obiri winning again...she knows the winning tactic.

obiri- faith - vivian ...are identical in their strength and intelligence as kenyan runners.

Krumins looking better every race. Easily in top four, looking around.

And I will add by saying I don't even think there's 10 women in the other heat that can just casually go under 15 in a prelim

7 women under 15 in a 5K heat?!?!
Different conditions obviously, but there wasn't 1 at all in the RIo heats.

Yes by 0.03. But the time was kinda fast anyway. Obiri was impressive like Ayana.

For the guys trying to find a stream Youtube has one too.
