What will her peak event for Tokyo? 5k?

Koko 14:30
Huge indoor PR by Koko (was 15:15). Only 12s over the WR, and she was most likely by herself most of the race.
And please, NO weight comments! I've been on LR for a long time now, and every single time Koko does well in a race people comment on her weight saying stuff like "not sustainable, she will get injured in a few weeks" or "in a few months her body will break down" etc.
Every single time I tell them "no, it's fine, she is naturally thin (-boned) body type, has been competing like that since middle school days in Germany and only had one noteworthy injury in her whole career" but people just don't listen and keep commenting on her weight and their own perception of Koko being thinner than others and that being a bad thing for her career. Nonsense!
You people say this sh*t every time and it always ends the same.

I forget the exact lap, but she was solo from probably 800 meters until the finish. Also lapped lots of runners and went into lane 2 a few times.
The lapping doesn't matter much, at least according to Tuohy. She was lapping runners countless times (at least 40+) when she set her 15:37(i) 5k as sophomore, and in the interview said it barely mattered for her time, maybe 1s.
I'd even say lapping runners makes it more interesting and gives runners something to chase down, and allow them to run faster than if they just solo TT in lane 1.
All your takes are unnecessary or wrong and bad

Have you ever raced on the track?
They should just load up the track with hobby joggers then so Koko could break 14.
I know the 1500 isn't run much indoor collegiately, but it looks like James West broke the NCAA 1500m indoor record

Yes, I think he did! I said before the meet even started that records were gonna fa;;. Can't wait for the Men's 5k now!

Do flat-footed runners like Purrier and Schweizer do (relatively) better in the new shoes than runners up on their toes like Houlihan? Are we going to see runners alter their mechanics to take advantage of the shoes better?

How are they cheater spikes? How about you actually celebrate this great accomplishment!
