Wonder if Fraser will do the 5,000 or 10,000 at trials (or both). 10,000 probably less competition

Wow. #2 and #3 all-time for an American woman? I think Flanagan's record is 14:47.

Jorgensen 15:10 is a big jump from the last race that a lot thought wouldn't happen. Well done.

Whoa- Koko!! Unless the Olympics are cancelled she's going to be a favorite for gold!

Who is Vanessa Fraser??

Typical BU times, would be at least +10s at any other track probably

Big fan of the sport, huh?

Based on google I think she went to Stanford.

Glad someone said it

What a stupid thing to say. Like her or not, 15:10 is a solid time and a huge improvement.

Gwen's 15:10 also happens to be her all-time pr by 5 secs.

So what. My 12 year old just ran an all-time pr in the 1500 of 4:59. Guess what, she's not going to the Olympics either.

15:10.98 is not 15:10.00.

She can celebrate her new PR in the stands of the new Hayward Field with the rest of us come June. That was the fastest 5000 she will run this year.

With your attitude based on your comments in this thread, I kind of feel sorry for your daughter.

What kind of person relishes in another’s failure? Especially someone they don’t even know or has never met?

She has now hit the OTQ so she will be competing at the Olympic Trials.
