Cory McGee made the final and Faith Kipyegon ran 3:55 to drag her heat to historically fast times.

There is no bigger lock at Worlds than Faith Kipyegon in the 1500, but the battle for 2nd and 3rd should be fierce. Could an American medal for the first time since 2017?

Sinclaire Johnson, the top US finisher in the 1500 at Worlds in 2022, will take her spot.

The women's 800 is once again incredibly deep while the women's 1500 features a number of women in the midst of career years.

Cooper Teare and Sam Prakel both got beat.

Sinclaire Johnson talked about having higher expectations in 2023 and how leaving the Bowerman Track Club ended up being an easy decision as the training wasn't meeting her needs and she wasn't happy.

Sinclaire Johnson enters her Wanamaker Mile match-up with Laura Muir at Millrose with new expectations.

Laura Muir is the favorite but she takes on US Champ Sinclaire Johnson plus Sage Hurta-Klecker, Josette Norris, and Nikki Hiltz.

Kipyegon sprinted away from silver medalist Gudaf Tsegay to win in 3:52.96. Laura Muir took bronze as Sinclaire Johnson was the top American in 6th.

Kipyegon will try to win a record 4th global 1500 title while US champ Sinclaire Johnson will try to earn her first global medal.

The men's 1500 was tactical and Cooper Teare still won. Sinclaire Johnson blew everyone away in the women's 1500 and Evan Jager has never been so happy to lose a race in his life.

Jakob Ingebrigtsen, Sinclaire Johnson, Berihu Aregwai, Michael Norman, Sha'Carri Richardson, Michael Norman, Paul Chelimo,Emma Coburn, Courtney Frerichs, Laua Muir, and Josette Norris all make the list. Plus do the low attendance numbers prove that Track Town USA is a myth? And watch out for Oregon's Micah Williams.

The distance races at this weekend's Track Meet in LA are stacked and can be viewed for just $5.99 and Jonathan Gault has questions about Lopez Lomong, Matthew Centrowitz, Conner Mantz, Sifan Hassan, and Sinclaire Johnson will fare.

By Jonathan Gault April 12, 2021 The 1500 meters, simply by the nature of the event, is always going to be one of the most-anticipated races at any championship meet. The race's length is right in the Goldilocks zone -- long enough for drama to build, short enough that the early laps can still matter -- and the tendency for most championship finals to be settled on the final lap creates maximum excitement. Five years ago, the women's 1500 was one of the best races of the US Olympic Trials, with Brenda Martinez edging Amanda Eccleston for the final spot by .03 after both women ran down reigning Trials champ Morgan Uceny in the home straight. The 2019 USA final in Des Moines was just as compelling, with Nikki Hiltz prevailing over Sinclaire Johnson and Kate Grace in a three-way kick for the third spot to Worlds.
