I have no idea why Obiri took the lead on the backstretch. I'd rather be behind but she got the lead and never gave it up.
Seems like the new normal to me. At this point, I'd be stunned if she started running like the Dibaba of 2015.

Dibaba, the world record holder at 1500m, gave up 10 seconds in the final 300m. Unbelievable, really.

This is an amazing meet but it makes no sense that the only running event is 4 x 100. Who came up with the order of events? They should have ended with something better than that.

hmmm what happend to this sub 3:29 talk?

First rabbit did his job, 2:37 first K. Field was about 2:40, but then Kipruto slowed up (while the rabbit got farther and farther ahead) and everyone was stacking up behind him ... no one wanted to pass. That got you the crawling 2:55 second K.
Weird tactics. With perfect weather and Kipruto down a shoe (and not at 100% even before that), you think someone would have tried going to the front and keeping it fast.
Granted I didn't see much of the race ... listened on the IAAF radio broadcast. Had a livestream going but between commercials and bad connection missed actually seeing most the race.

And of course they cut to commercial before we see him encounter a water jump. I'm on the edge of my seat, here!

I just can't get excited about the 400. Does that make me a bad person???
yes it does. but in this case you would only have been disappointed anyway. Fred Kerley 44.80 FTW, Steven Gardiner pulls up injured with like 80m to go.
Actually this is big for Kerley and American rooters because it means a wild card entry for Doha.

Good catch, that's big.
Such a disgusting farce: testo Semenya and beef Wilson 1-2.

What a dominant performance by Semenya. 1:55.27. Wilso through for a distant second in 1:57.
