Bazoaxe Apr 2014 6:46pm, 21 Apr 2014 6,667 posts	Quote Pin Bazoaxe Incredible contrast between the 2 sets of results.... 4 x women with course records and Flanagan sets a 3 min PB with Davilla not far behind ,all great performances. Meb wins in a PB, but the africans were way down on capabilities albeit one or two other americans also ran decent times. Makes you wonder what the africans were thinking

Either way ,a 3 min PB suggests a great run ,even if she started a bit too fast. I think she ran a race that in most years would have given her every chance of winning, unfortunately though she acted as pacemaker for the kenyans.
