The Olympic 1500m champ took down the Olympic 5000m champ. Other highlights,  Sheila Reid upset Shannon Rowbury in the 1500m, Laura Weightman and Natosha Rogers had breakthroughs in the 5k, Eric Jenkins and Cristian Soratos put on a show in the second 1500m heat, Olympian Hillary Bor looked great in the steeple, and his Olympic teammate Shadrack Kipchirchir came up short of the Worlds qualifying time.

It was no contest as Farah took the 3000 in a world-leading 7:34.66 while Weightman held off US’s Gabe Grunewald to get her first big international win.

Indoor WR holder Genzebe Dibaba took this one out very quickly (2:05.95 at 800) but she couldn't hold that pace forever and was caught by Simpson and Euro champ/2014 outdoor leader Sifan Hassan on the final lap. The three were level with 75 meters to go, but Simpson looked by far the best at the end and won in 4:00.38.
*MB: Wow: What a 1500!!!! Jenny Simpson wins it in Stockholm!!! 

Next up for Hassan and Aregawi. A race with Jenny Simpson. Will the AR fall?
*MB: Sifan Hissan takes down Abeba Aregawi for 2014 European 1500 title, Laura Weigthman gets bronze

Obiri looked like the best 1500 runner on the planet earlier this year but Glasgow has not been kind to her -- she was 8th in the DL meet there on July 11 and was just sixth in today's Commonwealth Games final. England's Laura Weightman took silver while former Duke runner Kate van Buskirk claimed the bronze for Canada.
