Her range is amazing. She has a 1:56 800m to her credit. I believe she will do the 5000m/10000m at the Olympics, because any other double (1500m/5000m, 1500m/10000m) presents scheduling difficulties.

She really kicked her last 1000m today, so I'm convinced she could go sub29.

She basically held WR pace for 9k and then did 10sec. of additional damage in the last k. If she paces a race based on this new WR she should be able to knock some time off with her closing speed.

It was crazy seeing some of the Tokyo-bound runners get lapped TWICE by her.

Um....somehow I missed the fact that Gidey ran 29:01 just 2 days later.

This W10000m is going to be epic.

Great running. Shame her coach couldn't be there to celebrate, but he's banned for doping.

Just to be clear (and I apologize if I have confused many with my edit/bumping an old thread), this was weeks ago. I totally missed the 29:01 that came right after the 29:06. Both women, of course, will be in the Oly 10k.
