That is one pretty gold medalist.
She is lovely. Beauty, brains, athletics.

Maggie Malone-Hardin won't make it through the finals as she doesn't have her best day through 3 attempts and Brandon Miller gave himself a chance with a strong first lap but faded back and couldn't find a kick, he's headed to the repechage round

Speaking of… what do we all think of the repechage rounds in this Olympics???

I like it. That's a long trip to just run one lap.
94chem,
That, sir, was the greatest post in the history of TexAgs. I salute you. -- Dough

Agree with this. It's a really long and expensive trip for athletes.

I like it too. More races for us to watch! But I wouldn't want it to be taken advantage of, like Crittendon just jogging in his heat since he knows he has this option. Overall it's good though.

Might be time for him to Galen Rupp himself into the 5K (probably way too big for that, though).
Well Ingebritsen had the fastest 5000m time this morning after running last night. In fact Norwegian athletes won both heats

What happened to Abdehamid? He was in 4th at the 4K mark, and finished distant last.

Dang that's awful. The stories my kids tell me about what happens in the woods at cross country meets...reminds me of the chariot race in Ben Hur.

He fell on the home straight. No grounds for appeal.

Mills got put through. You have to trip over something besides your own feet, I guess.

Wow! Thought Hocker was going to get caught inside at the end of turn.
In his interview last night, he said he made that initial move to the inside, got blocked and thought to himself he was just going to settle for getting a medal.....then Ingebrigsten moved to the outside on the straight. i thought when he got blocked and had to slow down he was done. what a race!

Cole Hocker's final move was Cole Trickle-esque

That finish in the 2nd semi of the 400m hurdles looked like a 7th inning stretch dot race

Lyles did not look great in the 200 SF.

Knighton and Bednarek win their 200m SFs. Lyles was in 2nd behind Tebogo by over a tenth of a second. All 3 are thru to the final

No clue. I watched it and saw nothing. She ran her 400 in her lane and finished 4th.

She got carded for Improper Conduct at the start, but I'm still looking for a video of it

Holy crap.

That lacked anything that resembled good form. Nothing but grit.
