I watched it. So noticeable how much harder she was working than the pacers. Not often you see middle distance men and women running together. Good on her for having a crack, but it’s going to be a fair while before any feeble goes under 4mins

The self belief he had.
In the heats when he was running down the home straight he seemed so full of confidence, like showing off for the crowd, not in a bad way just like saying "yes, I'm here to win"..... Its like he knew this was his time to.shine.

On another note Jamaica are back at the top of the pile in the men's 100 - Oblique Seville and Kishane Thompson 1st and 2nd.
Must be annoying as hell for Kishane to have been narrowly beaten in this and the Olympic final.last year - two silvers could have easily been two golds.

Yeah - it's extraordinary.
Ten years ago you'd have been impressed if a NZer had finished within 10 seconds of the Moroccans, Ethiopians and Kenyans.
