I saw it before it was deleted. Without being too specific (so this doesn't get deleted), it was a slightly non PC remark about one runner's choice of category to compete in.

Thanks And now that we all know who you are referring to, I say she def has a chance for top 3 based on recent performances
Muir often starts the season slowly, it wouldn't surprise me if she lost this race. Last year she didn't even get close to 4-flat until World's. She's managed to peak really well for the last two years. She's obviously favorite but I don't think she'll run away from the field like she did at 5th Avenue and the World Champs.

Wasn’t she injured early last year? I think last year’s slow start was more the exception than the rule. She has indoor PBs of 1:58.44, 2:31.93, 3:59.58, 4:18.75, 8:26.41, 14:49.12 (4 of which are national records). The last indoor race she ran she clocked 3:59.58, in February 2021. I don’t think she’ll show up at Millrose content to run 4:22 for 4th or something.

Yeah I think she starts the season slowly relative to Gudaf Tsegay who can run 3:55 out of the box. Would expect Muir/Reekie are in 4:17-4:20 fitness.
Muir should win, but my slight dark horse would be Reekie. She was on and off last year with mono, but still managed a 1:58, 5th place euro, and 4:18 road mile last season. At her best she can run 1:57 and 4:17 indoors, and if she’s in form she could give Muir a run for her money. Expect Hurta to be a huge player after last season and Johnson if she shows her early season form.
