Someone needs an editor. His latest star imports destroyed the 1500 field and got second. Maybe let your biases take a rest. We all know you want to take Salazar down.

Interesting. No one else, myself included, to my knowledge has considered Barega to be the weakest link in the Ethiopian chain but there may be something there.
Without digging up the video, does anyone recall how much front running Barega versus Gebrihewit did in the 10k qualifier? If I recall Kejelcha stayed tucked in for most/all of the race. The leaders had to know how fit their fellow countrymen were so I’m starting to wonder if they had done some kind of (mini-) peak for that race.
Random thought: Was T. Haile Bekele (age 20) born with that name? Is it common or did he change it? An IAAF article just mentions him wanting to live up to legacy of their names.
Also he has a taekwondo background so it’s prolly best not to tug on his shorts or get handsy ?
Plot twist: Kejelcha gets left off the 5000m team and this prompts him to start the process to become American and run for the RW&B in 2024.
I hope not!

Red, White and Blue. I thought the "American" would be enough to give it away, but apparently not for our slower visitors.

Captain Redundancy over here with the acronym shade.
I actually thought it was a racewalk group.
Guys, I'm so butthurt that Yomif won't be on the 5K team I just don't know what to do with myself. My woe-is-me schtick isn't working. Help!
I didn't realize you speak for the selectors!

? for participation
You earned it buddy.
Wait! The guy above is not me. This is me.
All of the Pacing conversation is so irrelevant, Cheptegei isn't even running the 5k lol. The Ethiopians will go 1-3 unless the Kenyan sneaks in. They have no other competition
5,000 boring..........substitute with the 3200/2 mile.

Am I living in the twilight zone? The Boston Marathon weather was terrible!
Is there a rule against attaching a helium balloon to yourself while running a road race?
How rare is it to run a sub 5 minute mile AND bench press 225?
Move over Mark Coogan, Rojo and John Kellogg share their 3 favorite mile workouts
Matt Choi was drinking beer halfway through the Boston Marathon
Mark Coogan says that if you could only do 3 workouts as a 1500m runner you should do these
