Here's the question: Managoi's choach said earlier this year that he could break the WR. Since them, Managoi has run 3:28, and won the world title running the last 1100m in 3:27 pace, and after finishing he had a Mo-esque "I'm not tired at all face" . Will he go for the WR in Zurich?

The finish really wasn't that great for a championship race.

Muir first clean runner in the 5,000.

Losing the 4x4 as an American should disqualify them from ever representing our country again

Don’t forget, Trinidad and Tobago have the huge population to chose from - all of 1,349,667.

Good point. From a percentage of population view, they were amazing. And then consider the Bahamas at 391,232 or about a fourth that population (and about a thousandth of that of the USA). Wow to both!

4 native Londoners just won the 4x1.

Population of Trinidad and Tobago is half the population of Chicago.

Well done U.S.

But the population of Chicago is reducing itself at an exponential rate so should be equal soon.

is that legal what Ingeb. did?

If it is, and it seems to be, I am not thrilled to know that.

Ato seemed quite pleased.

Exactly, Makh Daddy's 2012 win was much more impressive than this

3:34 w/ a 36 second last 300m

Yeah he did .

He made a lot off that phony accent since he grew up in Queens , NY .

He 's apparently a census taker in the USA also because he claims we have a population of 350 million now .

Well shit we have a worse illegal immigration problem than I could have imagined .

Did a guy who gets paid to talk just call the Semenya situation "sub-optional"?

Haha I heard that as well. I was like dude are you serious. Never heard that particular mix-up before.

That 800 final was a fuggin disgrace btw. Can't even roll my eyes hard enough at that.

The announcer, at the risk of his entire career, was being super careful to refer to Semenya as 'she', every time. Question: at home, do you think that Semenya's wife ever refers to Caster as "HE"? Please search for Caster's wedding pictures.

Semenya commented a few years ago that the only place he's a woman is on the running track.
