The second heat of the men’s 100 is slightly more competitive with five men with something to run for. First step, make this final, then know how many points you need to accrue in that and find that placing in this final to get you into the season final.

Men’s 400 hurdles sees the leading points gatherer, Thomas Barr, take on a mediocre field. Both he and all the others who make either the DL final or WC final are zero chance of a podium finish in either. The top three are set in both, just the order may change.
Women’s steeple probably sees Kenyans fill the first five places.
Women’s 200 could be something special with the right conditions. If they could fluke a following breeze just under 2 mps, the talent is there to have four under 22. Not possible? Lightning struck once in Seoul 1988, 4th in 21.99. Could it happen again, in Birmingham?

so five from heat one: simbine, belcher, t.tracey, degrasse, and gemili are thru to the final
that leaves z.xie, blake , and rodgers from heat 2 making up the eight later tonight
Anyone got a live stream?
DeGrasse has to win and hope that either: blake finishes 4th or worse, or Z.Xie comes last of the 8; for Andre to make the DL final. Seems improbable. DL final is shaping as Simbine, Coleman, Gatlin, Hughes, Lyles, Blake, Z.Xie, and Rodgers.

Probably most excited for Engels, McSweyn, Musagala, & Tefera in the 1500. I’ll take Tefera, he’s been on an upswing and seems like a smart dark horse pick for Doha, if you can even call him that. Women’s mile is pretty good too—could see Klosterhalfen run pretty fast. 4:17.24 would be top-10 all time, 4:15.79 would be top-5.
4.21.11
German NR and MR in 4:21.11 by Koko. Had to frontrun after 800m as expected. Field was relatively weak, with 6 of the top 7 this year not present.

I know it's wrong for me to say this but when I see her my inner emotions, empathy and humanity is telling me to help. That's all I'm saying.
Koko just showed how to beat the kickers. I don't know if anyone is beating her. Too much talent.
womens 100 hurdles later features 5 americans, 2 jamaicans, and a Nigerian. But there a real chance the americans could finish 4th to 8th.
Just noticed Berglund is running in the 1500. Two 1500s in a span of a couple of days? After setting a PR a couple of days ago I wouldn't expect him to go under 3:38 today.
Next time listen to your instincts and don’t post that here. Your anonymous “concern” on a message board doesn’t help anyone, and it’s not even close to your business anyway.
Tefera is too nice of a runner. He was conceding lane 1 as leader on the home straight and letting Musagala pass freely and pick up the win. Slow race with even slower final lap in 56-high.
Are the runners really struggling with the wind?
