Hmm it was bad wrote:
Conditions were brutal. Major humidity. High 80s. They PRd but give them a couple more seconds with better conditions and better pacing. The top 4 women can all run under 4:02 right now.
Schlachtenhaufen ran 4:35.70 in Birmingham. She was 10th, almost 15 seconds back. That converts to a 4:15.
Purrier ran 4:30.30. She was 6th, a little over 9 seconds back. That converts to a 4:10.
What happened? Is this b/c Schlachtenhaufen ran a 3000 in Cork on Tuesday, and Purrier is deep into her 5000 training for Worlds?
