If not, we should start one......
Runners run
Meanwhile, in Missouri:
I was a little further back, but there you have it.
Simpson, dueling with Roxbury:
Then, a blur of fast women:
Lagat:
Is there a link to see Lagat's race?
A list of my PRs in a misguided attempt to impress people that do not care.
This looks right.
Why is it sideways?
It should be mentioned that Lagat took that record from Galen Rupp.
Mr. Rupp, on the same day, took Lagat's 2 mile AR, running 8:09 and doing it with a crazy negative split. He went 4:07, 4:02 (solo).
Interview with Rupp after the race.
I figured it out this morning. Galen Rupp is the Kobe Bryant of the distance running scene, the white mamba. He thrives on the hate.
So many cool things happening in that race. Ed Cheserek (Newark prep! Woot!), set a national record (high school) with a 13:57. All the more impressive: He was totally alone and getting lapped by the lead pack (200m track).
lazy distance runner
Nadler - it looks like i was sitting right next to you section 465 row b. the whole meet was great but that 5000 was awesome.
Indeed! I was in 466. What a night!

2-mile Rupp -------> Rupp vs. Lagat (3000m) <---------5000m Lagat
What say you all?
MTA: As for me, I'm rooting for Lagat for "emotional" reasons, but will give Rupp the edge. He ran his AR run alone. His second split shows he can finish fast and hold off the Lagat Surge.
The last time I looked at a race that way was the OT in Houston. I rooted for Meb, but gave Hall the edge. Whoops.
Lagat!!
Feeling the growl again

I'm looking forward to this. Nice to see big dogs not avoiding each other in order to preserve their pricing power.
