Why no love for Osika in your summary? Did she drop out, or are you writing her off?

She had a great end to her year in 2019, but:
a) she's got to beat two sub 4 women
b) Hiltz is a world finalist who was sneaky good at timing almost everything right last season in the 1500
c) looking at her early marks this year, 2:02 (pretty good), 4:34 mile (very average), and 9:00 in the 3000 (very average). Comparitively - Purrier split 8:56 en route to two miles and looked relaxed and in control doing so.
Again, shes good, but think it fair to say that there isn't much to indicate her pulling off an upset on Saturday (but hey that's why we race, maybe I eat my hat).

That makes sense, but that's not what the brojos say in their article. They (sensibly) say Hiltz has to be the favorite to make the top three. But they go on to say Purrier, Dani Jones & Sinclaire Johnson "could all be in that mix." Given their records, it's hard for me to see why Jones and Johnson rate a mention but not Osika.
anyone know where to find a free stream?
Looking at the hurdlers...i wonder why gewn jourgensen doesn't steeple. is it because of her achilles issues?
holy crap can we stop with the allyson felix nonsense? she's been washed up for at least 3 years now, looked like a snail on the track. can't even get a real sponsorship as a many time medalist. she's irrelevant and i'm so done hearing about her

She's no spring chicken, but she's still solid (not at 60m, but 400m) and is someone who draws a crowd.
Ran 50.x last year and got two medals at the world champs...
Anyone else's legit TV stream continuously buffering?
Donovan Brazier is certainly looking fit.
