I like that whoever designed the Road Champs course decided to pick the one street with a gigantic median for the finish straight

What time is it?? Time to make history ⏱️ Six days after finishing 4th in the Fifth Avenue Mile, Drew Hunter 🇺🇸 crosses the pond to finish 11th in the World Road 5km championship in 13:14, breaking Ben True’s 13:20 mark from 2017 to set a new American record in the road 5km.

Outside of the mixed 4x400, she still hasn’t shown up in a big race. I don’t understand why the hype train continues. From what I saw today, she just doesn’t have the closing kick to win the 800.

My take is that she will never be 800 elite cos she doesn't have the kick at the end

She’s not got close to beating either of them yet though… Impressive times on the face of it given it’s her first year but where’s the guarantee she runs 1.54s..1.53s 🤔 We already know KH & AW are Beijing & LA good!

Reminder of a bunch of these takes just a few weeks ago
My takeaway was honestly that it’s not her distance 😅😬 I think 400 or 400h is where it’s at for her, the distance drained her speed totally

🗣️ "Very disappointed in the race and result racing a bunch of cowards." 💎 When no one went with the pacemaker in the Diamond League final, Jakob Ingebrigtsen took it upon himself to keep it honest and press from the front. Always candid, he gave us an honest assessment of his “shitty, terrible and extremely disappointed” performance today. He is set to compete in the World Ultimate Championships 1500m next week. 🎥 FULL INTERVIEW ⤵️

Wow what a run from young Cam Myers - Punched the gap this time didnt wait for it, made the race work around him in the closing stages and caps of his incredible DL season with a victory... amazing

They needed a third rabbit. Won’t happen again.

Wanyonyi is consistently so good from 300m-500m Gets to his spot then immediately stops pressing. Dominant win today.

Yearly reminder that the Diamond League final has rabbits for some reason. It’s as if the previous 14 meets didn’t provide enough opportunity to run fast. It’d be cool to watch people, you know, race.

Good reminder here in the replies and QTs that people on this app are extremely uninformed about professional training/racing
Femke Broeders-Bol revealed today that her Long run pace is 5:30 per km and threshold pace is around 4:20 per km

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a contender!! Top-notch questions after running 9th fastest all-time
World Record for the worst question ever asked in a mixed zone? #PreClassic

Yesterday’s Lap Count feels even more prophetic now, as both women clock 10.70s. This time, Alfred’s reaction time was 0.005 seconds ahead of MJW’s — exactly the margin of victory.
THIS RIVALRY CAN’T BE BEAT 👏 Another epic battle between Olympic champ Julien Alfred 🇱🇨 and World champ Melissa Jefferson-Wooden 🇺🇸 lives up to the hype, as Alfred hands MJW her first loss in over two years with a new lifetime best 10.70. The race was as close as can be as Jefferson-Wooden ran 10.70 as well, just 0.005 seconds back at the line. Sha’Carri Richardson 🇺🇸 takes third in 10.97 0.01 ahead of Tina Clayton 🇯🇲, as European champ Amy Hunt 🇬🇧 is a well-beaten fifth in 11.04.
