Dorian Urley in Rome 1500!

[cubop]

Talk about baptism under fire!....he needs a pretty big improvement to get to Berlin.

Good luck to him...stay in the back and hope for the best....

No Tegenkamp in 5000...if he's looking for that sub 13.20, wouldnt this have been the perfect venue?

so we're clear: Teg's place on the team is secure even if he doesn't have an A-qualifier. What he would do if he got an A, however, is put Jager on the team, and since they're training mates.....

Where are you getting Ulrey in the 1,500? Is there an updated start list I don't know about?

Good luck DU!!

[cubop]

He's listed as of this morning when I looked in the GG website.

So I take it sometime between celebrating like an idiot in Eugene ("USA baby!") and now, Ulrey realized he had to actually run a time to make the team.

What a dick, showing excitement and enthusiasm after the biggest performance of his career.

Yeah, if I finished top three at the nationals. I would be calm and reserved. I sure wouldn't be an enthusiastic. That'd be idiotic.

Annnnyway - good luck to him in getting his Standard.

Getting 3rd at USAs isn't a funeral, but don't wave around the flag and elbow Manzano and Lomong out of the shot to say something like "USA baby!" when there is only the slightest of chances you will be on the team in Berlin.

[justblaze1011]

Well you just sit there and hate on the man while he runs in these meets to get his standard. By the way, are you running in Berlin???

Hmmm!!!

[K.I.R.]

By the way, are you running in Berlin???

I'm not actually. Notice my lack of unnecessary enthusiasm.

not by any stretch of the imagination; in the realm of extended-season CRs (i.e., those after the NCAA), Bernard Lagat has a 3:30
