Is the 5k not finished yet? Is the meet behind schedule or something? Slow results page?
14:02 for Burns
maybe a meet delay? results page has been working fine. who knows
Brian Fay 13:01 wow
Burns is over his head i the A. Heat, He probably would not win the B Heat either
McGorty got the standard
McGorty right behind Fay in 13:02.13.
Brian Fay 13:01 wow. Dude got 9th at NCAAs a month ago. And Mcgorty gets the standard 13:02
Try this link
Dead last in 14:02 for Burns.
13:01 for Brian Fay, wow. McGorty at 13:02 gets the standard and is going to Budapest. 13:05 for Nordas.
Burns should call it a season. He’s burnt out from doing too many 5000m.
Burns going backwards in times. Hang up the spikes for a few months my guy
Also big PR for Hay in 13:02 for his first race of the season!
Lots of big PR, i'm surprised Nordas did only 13:05.
In the B heat is the Japanese high school 5k record holder Keita Satoh (13:22 last year at 18). I was surprised to find that he also ran 3:37 for 1500 and 7:50 for 3000 at just 17 years old, both Japanese u20 records as well.
That is great for Fay and McGorty. How strong is the NCAA right now with Fay going 13:01 after getting beaten soundly in some races? But that also sounds like Burns was in the wrong heat entirely, as did the seed times. Sometimes you may think that gaming the system and getting into a better heat than you deserve serves your interests, and you are wrong. The second heat, if near the seed times, could have been great for him to break the record if he was feeling good. It's not unheard of to have a bad first race in Europe. Maybe he can take another shot at it next week during what are supposed to be cooler temps in Europe (today was supposed to be 34 C in northern Europe) but then he should definitely take his break and get ready for xc.
Oregon probably told him he's getting redshirted - knock yourself out this summer but things will be very different at the O - after this call it a day
12 guys in the first heat of the 5000m ran significantly slower than their pb's, so the conditions weren't necessarily super. Some of those 13:05 and better guys might have broken 13 in a 12:50s race. I'd think that McGorty and Fay would be a couple, as would the race winner.
