Seen her for the first time.. .that's a Namibian Caster Semenya. I expect the same discussions...

Her outdoor best, but she has run 3:53.09 indoors this year already

Yeah, somewhere in here there was a remark about her trying for the WR. It's a great run and she definitely has more to give seeing the indoor was better.

Yes, Dobek just started running the 800m this year!

Wow! I would like to know the back story to why he switched - obviously a good move. Anytime I see a sub 1:44 my eyes perk up. He's 27 I believe - what a change in a positive direction hopefully. Makes me wonder why so late?

Now looking at this he breaks into the top 100 on his first year running the event. That's crazy when considering other top 100 in other running events from 100 on up. Wonder what the stats on people doing this - how far has someone broken into the lists when first running an event. This has got to being in the top 10.

Thanks for that! Those commentators where super excited. Huge PB (previous was only this year 1:44.76). When did he start running the 800? Seems like this year?

Men's (8 men sub-1:45):
1 Dobek 1:43.73 PB - he looks like a contender, very smooth the way he made his move with 150 to go
2 Webb (GBR) 1:44.14 PB
3 Giles (GBR) 1:44.20 oPB
4 Lewandowski 1:44.31 SB
5 Krzysztof Roznicki 1:44.51 PB (not 18yo until August!!)
...
13 Kszczot 1:47.20 ! SB

This race is quite interesting for a selection point of view for both Poland and GB. Doesn't look good for Kszczot going to Tokyo, even if Lewandowski opts to only do the 1500, with Borkowski also running under 1:45 again. Stunning time by Roznicki.
