Pheobe Wright, so genuine and also funny as feck
She will barely make the final. No chance of a top 5 finish.

Lagat. I don't want to believe in aging.
Berian. I want to believe some guy who worked at mcds can make the olympics.
Fisher. I want to believe in the youngest kid in the 5 km.
that he made it in at 19 years old is amazing. Look for him to shin in 4 more years.
Oops, I meant to type "shine"
Lagat. Gotta root for the old guys.

Really admire her fire, guts, humility, dedication, her willingness to give back to the sport with her yearly running camp for young female runners (paid in good part out of her own pocket). Injury issues the last couple of years have kept her shy of where she should have been performing. Since she is seemingly healthy again, hoping she can hit the top again.
Probably because she has so many doping red flags
Hmmm, not sure I would agree... that's something I tend to follow and try to account for where possible, but hadn't noticed in her case — which ones?
Galen Rupp and Kyle Merber
Rupp for 10k/5k wins!!
Generations from now will be posting about how RUPP TRIPLED the 5k/10k/THON in 2016!!!
I did not know you could unscratch

Kori Carter - 400 hurdles. It's been awhile, but I haven't given up on her potential. Her ability to fight the last half of the race has always inspired. Her close come-from-behind victories in CA HS meets and the NCAA were no accident, they were the marks of a champion in the making who fights to the line. If she can stay healthy, she will be unstoppable.
Sydney McLaughlin - 400h/400. Could be the next Allyson Felix in terms of talent,prodigy-status, and endorsements.
The women's 400mh is going to be great. Shamier Little and Sydney McLaughlin will be hammering with the pros. I'll be cheering for Autumne Franklin who just graduated Harvard and got 4th at the NCAAs.
Drew Windle and Abraham Alvarado
I still root for Hasay to have that magical break out race!
...I gave up in my last race so I didn't actually lose!
Manzano, Uceny, Hasay, Cain, C.Derrick. J.See, German.

Garrett Heath
Jordan McNamara

It would be such an amazing story if AllieO somehow qualifies in the 5K. Too bad she was injured recently, but glad that she declared for the trials.
Kate Murphy! How awesome would it be to see a 17 year old on the women's 1500 team alongside Rowbury and Simpson!!
