        Yep. I could be wrong, but I think there a hundred hundredths of a second in the hundredths of a second part of the time.

         

        MTA: no matter what the number, I find it humorous that the word "dominated" was used to refer to a fraction of a second in a mile race.

        Passion is a rather frightening thing because if you have passion you don't know where it will take you.

         

        When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

          So where is Lagat?

            That's a good caption. Can't blame her.

              Y'all should watch the race.

               

              The boards make it fascinating. Yes, Lagat was dominated--tactically. The way NBA centers dominate their opponents: through position and power.

                  I personally wouldn't go with any of these.  I'd show a little local pride...Lucat Verzbicas.

                    Unscientific observation: All hell broke loose with about 300m to go.

                        I watched it live on tv, too.  Mekonnen looks like he's older than me--dude is 23?  It was a pretty dominant win.

                          Not bad either:

                          My DW and buddies were at the meet. She did point out that Fabiana was worth a look, for the uniform if nothing else.

                            Y'all should watch the race.

                            Thanks for the explanation. Now that I've seen the race, I agree. I don't think I've seen a indoor race before.

                             

                            Women's pole vaulting is where it's at though.

                            When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

                              Pretty cool, huh? FWIW, I think they did a great job with the telecast--or at least better than usual. My wife watched it too, and she was into it.

                                WTF???

                                 

                                And, Go Friars!

                                 

                                And, wow, can you imagine what a star she'd be if she were American?
