Birmingham CWG Day 5 - (Saturday August 5th)

He’d been watching the 800…..

13.20 is a bit ordinary these days so when you see him run some great times in winter in usa it will be taken for what it represents. Not much.

Hutchings talking about Buster Mottram! Try Craig……

No, Craig Mottram's nickname was Buster. I think every bloke called Mottram must get tagged with it!

Re Mary Moraa and the DSD issue ... Usually (always??) DSD athletes have quite deep voices. She sounds very feminine though.

[marra]

Lol, I heard that and was confused for a second who he was thinking about!

Kiplimo has had a great CWG ! Fine win in a great contest 👏

Scott with a SB so can't really complain.

A SB from Scott, and I make that his 2nd fastest ever 5k outdoors. Perhaps the 13:05 is the outlier?

Marc Scott again disappointing. !!

4th in a SB on paper is great, but he was up and down, making his own issues!

[Ursus]

Now even more confused as he finished like a train for 4th

Good dust up in the 5K. Infinitely more enjoyable than paced DL time trials.

[Occasional Hope]

Marc Scott recovered pretty well at the end to get 4th.

Great fight for the actual medals.

Gonna need some explanations on Scott because his form disappeared suddenly this summer

Marc Scott is either running horrific tactics or hasn’t got it today - he’s all over the place

Moraa arrived as a great talent when she ran brilliantly in the Kenyan Champs in both 400m and 800m. Mu better be aware next year.
Keely still has not the manic speed yet to be a winner but who knows what her future is.Let us remember that Keely ran 1.57 and bits but was quite a bit slower in this race than in Tokyo, with a two race stint this time round.
I assume she was more affected by her great race in Eugene.
