They are making fun of the rabbit for having her own watch? Do the announcers not get why she has her own watch.

Mecke should be fired. She's supposd to run 64 and she's 20 meters ahead one lap in.

AWFUL.

I think a lot of pacers are worried about not getting to the front. Mecke basically sprinted off the line.

Would be much better for her to go out with the field and then gradually make her way around the front during the first 100m. That way they don't have to bridge a gap just to stay with her.

A lot of the time when the field "doesn't go with the rabbit", it's the rabbit's fault, and in the first 50m. That was certainly true here.
