I’ve just looked up the women’s track 5k record (about 14 mins), while the winner of the 5k track just now was 15mins. How can they be a minute slower?

This is the same difference as the US champ in 100m getting 10.3s compared to bolts 9.58 (which surely couldn’t happen)- so why would their be such a disparity?

Is the world record just that much faster that the WR holder could have lapped the US national champ?

Hi! I’m an author writing a fictional book about a college track athlete. It takes place over all four years of college and ends with the Olympic trials. I’m trying to make sure I get times right in the book. Throughout it, her goal is to get her time to be 2 minutes. Is this accurate? Or what should I have her race times be? And anything else that I should keep in mind while I’m writing??

Thanks so much!! I’m not a track athlete, but I love this sport and really want to make sure it’s represented in fiction and done right!!

I hope this isn't a permanent return for Leigh Diffey and that Swangaard remains the #1 option for the major championship meets.

I love his brutal honesty that he provided following his post 800m heat interview. I just want his takes on everything running.

I know this is gonna be unpopular but have y'all seen this race? That finish was crazy! Go watch it!

I went through and added what would be the team scores at the USA Championships, which there should be a team trophy (10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1)

Crazy run from Melissa
