Barega and Mechaal are up front now. Beamish is moving up. The whole field is bunched.

3 laps to go, pretty much everyone is still there. Beamish still towards the back half, Ramsden in 4th. Barega and Mechaal still out front.
4 autos: Barega, Beamish, Ramsden, Mechaal! (in that order)
The announcers never noticed Geordie Beamish until the last 300 m. Didn't they realize he has a great finish and was running a brilliant race?
such a bad move from Parsons taking the lead for half of the race
A bit disappointing for Bibic at home... Also disappointed by Jonas Raess in the first heat. Both ran 7:39 this winter though.
Yeah agreed, not really sure what the thought process was there lol. Maybe he knew he wasn't going to get an auto and thought he should lead for a bit so that the announcers would mention him
No one told him they don't offer a $500 bonus for leading at halfway.
Third heat is off! Aregawi off cleanly in the back
He'll post something sappy on Instagram later about his heart not letting him run any other way. HSers will eat it up and they will sell more merch. I kind of respect the hustle in a way.
Lord.. gusman doing the same thing.. when will these tinman dweebs learn???
They're off pretty slowly. A couple guys are trading off the lead. Right now it's Gusman running for Malta
Marc Scott sitting in 3rd, Ebenya (not sure of that spelling) in 2rd. Aregawi sitting in the back
3:20ish through 1200m. Wildschuut is in 2nd now. Everyone is just trading off leading positions

They're surging and slowing. Everyone is still there with 5 laps to go
Ebenyo is leading now. Gusman in 2nd. Scott and Kimeli in 3rd and 4th. Aregawi moving up now
Aregawi actually seems to be struggling to move up through the field
Scott, Ebenyo, Kimeli, Folworth (spelling? a German) take the autos. Aregawi comes in 6th a little way back
This heat was so chaotic. Also lots of pushing and near falls every other second
No scholarship limits anymore! (NCAA Track and Field inequality is going to get way worse, right?)
