Curious that Yomif Kejelcha, who has broken 12:50 three times on the DL circuit this year (with 2 victories), is in the 10,000 while Biniam Mehary, who won the 10,000 at Pre in a world-leading 26:43 (beating Selemon Barega & Berihu Aregawi) is doing the 5,000.

Some good details here about why Grand Slam Track pulled the plug on its 2025 season after just three meets.

So in the men's 400 at USAs: -No Quincy Hall -No Michael Norman -Chris Robinson (#4 on 2025 US list) running 400H only Still some tough competition (it's the USA, after all), but a very real possibility that 17-year-old Quincy Wilson could make the team...

What you missed at the Kenyan World Championship trials (held on a Tuesday morning, for some reason): -Reynold Cheruiyot wins a 1500 thriller (again) -Beatrice Chebet finishes 3rd (She seemed ok with it) -Find out why Brian Musau wasn't there letsrun.com/news/2025/07/2…

27 men's 800m runners have broken 1:44 in 2025. That is the most ever in one year. It's a crazy number by itself but even crazier when you consider how bad the event was a few years ago. Sub-1:44s by year 2022: 8 2023: 13 2024: 23 (all-time record) 2025: 27 (all-time record)

As of now, Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone is entered in the 400m only at the USATF Outdoor Championships, which begin July 31. Nothing finalized yet -- entries close tomorrow night -- but looks like she may be leaning towards the flat event at USAs/Worlds. usatf.sport80.com/public/events/…

Fun Stats After running a 3:32.93 PB in the men’s 1500m at the London Diamond League, Ethiopia’s Selemon Barega has now achieved the 2025 Tokyo WC standard in four events: 1500m, 5000m, 10,000m, and marathon!

Incredible start from Oblique Seville. Gapped the field immediately. Noah Lyles a good way back in this one, his first 100m since winning Olympic gold in Paris last year. But he has two months to close that gap. Lyles has said he will run the 200m only at the US championships.

Sensational 200m from Julien Alfred in London. 21.71 is the fastest time in the world since Shericka Jackson's 21.57 at the 2023 Diamond League final. And Alfred ran it into (another) headwind, -0.6. Could pop some really fast times in the 100/200 in August with friendly wins...

60.0 63.5 64.5 62.4 (plus 1.4 for final 9m) Going out in 60.0 is in no way the most efficient way to run a 4:11 mile, but that has never stopped Gudaf Tsegay before. Just a classic chaotically-paced race from her, but she had enough in the final 200 to hold off Jessica Hull.

Gudaf Tsegay runs 4:11.88 to win the mile in London -- #2 all-time behind Faith Kipyegon's 4:07.64 world record. And an American record for Sinclaire Johnson, who runs 4:16.32 to take 4th and shave .03 off Nikki Hiltz's time from 2023 Monaco. letsrun.com/forum/flat_rea…

Matt Hudson-Smith must be getting Olympic flashbacks. Charlie Dobson just pulled a Quincy Hall on him. Came from waaaay back (6th with 100m to go) to win the 400m in 44.14. Back-to-back British wins at London DL after Georgia Hunter Bell takes the 800.

Fun women's 5k in London with Medina Eisa battling Fantaye Belayneh for the win in the home straight. Rose Davies & Georgia Griffith both smash the Oceania record, while 19-year-old Brit Innes Fitzgerald runs 14:38. letsrun.com/forum/flat_rea…

USA men's 800m list heading into USAs 1:42.01 Josh Hoey 1:42.71 Bryce Hoppel 1:43.08 Donavan Brazier 1:43.32 Jonah Koech 1:43.52 Brandon Miller Going to be an absolute war in Eugene.

Good runs from the Americans Bryce Hoppel and Donavan Brazier in London. 1:42.71 is Hoppel's 3rd-fastest time ever, and 1:43.08 is Brazier's 3rd-fastest time ever. But the event is at such a high level right now that those results only place 4th and 6th. letsrun.com/forum/flat_rea…
